FOR LEASE: The Square At The Bowen Building, A Premier D.C. Coworking Space

Welcome to The Square at the Bowen Building, a Class-A coworking space in the heart of Washington, D.C., that has been thoughtfully curated to combine hospitality-driven design, technological sophistication and flexible workspace solutions.   

The Square, which occupies the sixth floor of The Bowen Building, has 30 unique office spaces, including three enterprise suites. The space caters to everyone from individual professionals to larger teams, providing furnished offices, abundant amenities and flexible membership options that can easily adapt as company needs and preferences change.

The Square is in The Bowen Building, a historic 12-story D.C. office building built in 1922. Situated at 875 15th St. NW, on the corner of McPherson Square, the building is mere steps from The White House, The National Mall and dozens of fine dining, retail and hospitality destinations.

About The Asset

The majority of today’s workforce favors hybrid or fully remote work arrangements, with 76% citing flexibility as a key factor in deciding where to work. More than ever, it’s crucial for employers to choose their office accommodations wisely — all while keeping future growth plans and employee demands in mind.

The Square at The Bowen Building easily bridges this gap for employers, providing companies of all shapes and sizes with the flexible workspace they need to thrive. Coworking memberships start at $175 per month and private office memberships start at $1,000 per month.

At the heart of The Square is a café featuring locally roasted coffee and a Bevi machine. Members can also take advantage of the kitchen at The Square, complete with microwaves, dishware and a refrigerator. 

The Square team offers daily light breakfast and afternoon snacks, with a themed happy hour every Thursday to bring the community together. The management team at The Square is Forbes-trained, delivering an elevated, hospitality-driven experience.

Beyond its desirable location, The Square offers luxurious amenities such as a newly renovated rooftop garden that offers fresh, seasonal produce to members during the summer months. It also hosts a series of honey-producing beehives.

The fitness center is designed to support holistic health and wellness, featuring Peloton machines, a Concept2 RowERG, a TRUE Palisade Climber machine and a locker room. For bike and scooter commuters, a secure bike room offers ample storage, bike hanging options, a dedicated pump station and day-use lockers for helmets and gear.

Recently renovated to the highest standards of sustainability and wellness, the building has earned two prominent sustainability distinctions: LEED Silver Certification for design and construction and Fitwel Certification for property management. 

It also is a 9 Foundations Healthy Building participant, underscoring its commitment to occupant health and environmental performance. Advanced building systems and integrated technology ensure efficient, sustainable operation that aligns with modern environmental and operational goals.
