The cocktail reception took place on the building’s rooftop terraces, which feature a resident lounge with fireplace, grilling stations, outdoor kitchen, fire pits and views of the U.S. Capitol and Washington Monument.

The 13|U complex offers a fitness studio with personal trainer, private underground parking, a state-of-the-art key system and a full-service concierge. JBG Smith is also offering a full-year membership to VIDA Fitness’ Penthouse Pool Club for new residents leasing two-bedroom units.
