Located just off Wisconsin Avenue at the upper end of the Georgetown neighbourhood, our 3300 Whitehaven project envisions the redevelopment of a vacant, five story office building on a 3.15-acre lot overlooking historic Dumbarton Oaks Park. The project will retain the existing foundations and below grade parking garage, adding a new, seven-story residential building atop the remaining structure to provide up to 274 multifamily units – approximately 15% of which will be affordable – to a deeply supply constrained submarket. Additionally, the redevelopment will create over 5,000 square feet of residential expansion space and over 34,000 square feet of new indoor and outdoor recreation facilities for the K-12 school located next to the project site.

In addition to creating a unique and biophilic experience for the future residents at 3300 Whitehaven, utilizing mass timber will also serve a critical, leading-edge function to help pioneer important construction technology that promises major sustainability and other far-reaching benefits.

The project is currently pursuing jurisdictional approvals and is expected to commence construction in 2024.
