627 H St NW will not be the site of an 80k SF office and retail building, but rather a 245-room micro-hotel in a JV with Modus Hotels.

And there will be ground-floor retail, a restaurant, a bar and a roof deck, the Washington Business Journal reports. While the micro-hotel concept is new to Washington, it's doing well in New York.
