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 265+ multifamily units – approximately 15% of which will be affordable – to a deeply supply constrained submarket.  

The first phase of the project, completed in 2023, added a new athletic facility for the school. Designed to support student needs and the school’s long-term requirements, the facility functions as both a gymnasium and auditorium with seating for nearly 200 spectators, meaning functions that previously occurred elsewhere can now happen on site, benefiting the students, the school and the community.

Additionally, in support of our company-wide ambition to reduce carbon emissions in line with limiting global warming to 1.5°C, mass timber/CLT structural systems, carboncure concrete and other sustainable building measures are being considered.

The project is currently pursuing jurisdictional approvals.
