Boston Properties, GWU To Redevelop Office And Retail Complex

2100 Pennsylvania Ave NW

George Washington University is partnering with Boston Properties on a new office and retail development on its Foggy Bottom campus.

The partnership will redevelop two buildings, 2100 Pennsylvania Ave NW (above) and Rice Hall, into new offices and retail, with Boston Properties controlling and developing the buildings and GW controlling the land underneath.

University administrative offices in Rice Hall will be relocated, as will some of the tenants in 2100 Pennsylvania. No construction timeline has been set, but the tenants have until late 2018/mid-2019 to vacate the building.

Boston Properties also partnered with GWU on The Avenue at 2200 Pennsylvania, a similar mixed-use redevelopment that features a Whole Foods on the ground floor.
