David M. Schwarz Architects announced today it has been hired to redesign portions of the prominent Pennsylvania Building at 1275 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, and will begin work this fall. The '50's office building was redeveloped in the '80's by owner Willco Companies, which purchased the building in the late '60's for $6,600,000. The 286,000 s.f. building was modernized in 2007.
The Pennsylvania Building sits across from Freedom
Plaza and the Wilson Building. Construction
will entail re-skinning the
lower three floors of the exterior stone façade, redesigning the metal
and glass office entry marquee, a new
rooftop terrace overlooking Pennsylvania Avenue, and a redesigned office lobby.
Shwarz is also designing 2700 Woodley in Woodley Park, JBG's U Street hotel and the addition to Ceasar's Palace in Las Vegas.
