ABOUT
THE DC DEVELOPMENT REPORT
The DC Development Report is a summary of the major development and construction projects in the District of
Columbia. The Washington, DC Economic Partnership (WDCEP) began tracking development activity in 2001 with
the hope of creating a comprehensive database that would answer a number of questions in regards to the construction
activity in the city. The Report summarizes our entire database of projects, highlights major projects and what lies
ahead for development in the District of Columbia.
This update of the DC Development Report is an overview of development activity and of the expansion occurring in
DC. As a resource book, it is a compilation of nearly 14 years of data collection and research that provides an overview
of an ever-changing development and construction cycle.
The WDCEP performs an annual “development census” in the month of September and receives contributions from
more than 100 developers, architects, contractors and economic development organizations. This outreach results in
updates to more than 350 projects. While our database of projects is constantly being updated, for the purposes of this
publication all data reflects project status, design and information as of September 2014.
In 2014 the WDCEP partnered with CBRE to provide an economic overview of DC and in-depth analysis of the office,
retail and residential markets. Although every attempt was made to ensure the quality of the information contained in
this document, the WDCEP and CBRE makes no warranty or guarantee as to its accuracy, completeness or usefulness
for any given purpose.

ECONOMIC
OVERVIEW
ECONOMIC OVERVIEW OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA
While the District of Columbia (“DC”) has a total population of 646,449, its population increases to more than one million each day due
to the influx of employees coming predominantly from Northern Virginia and Suburban Maryland.1 In fact, the DC metropolitan area
maintains the second highest share of public transit commuters in the country, second only to New York City. DC saw total employment
rise 11.7% between September 2004 and September 2014 with the addition of 79,400 jobs. Though the unemployment rate remains
elevated at 7.8% as of September 2014, this is a significant decline from the 10.5% rate recorded in September 2011. The table below
presents the historical change and growth in employment levels for major industry groups in DC for the past five and ten years.

Office Employment
Office-using employment in DC continues struggling to
regain its footing as a result of the substantial cuts in federal
government employment. Between September 2013 and
September 2014, office-using employment experienced a net loss
of 700 jobs. Although the Professional and Business Services

sector, typically regarded as DC’s engine of employment growth,
observed a year-over-year increase of 2,800 jobs, this was offset
by the loss of 3,600 federal government jobs. Meanwhile, the
Financial Activities, Information, and Other Services sectors
added a combined 200 jobs.

EMPLOYMENT TRENDS
Public vs. Private Sector
DC’s public and private sectors have seen divergent employment trends during the past several years. When the U.S. economy was
rocked by the financial crisis, the private sector saw declining job growth. Since the recession, however, the private sector has made
great strides to reach pre-recession levels of employment, growing 13.5% between September 2009 and September 2014. Meanwhile,
public sector employment experienced large job gains in the aftermath of the recession due to the federal government’s stimulus plan.
Since 2009, however, public sector employment has dropped about 0.1% per annum, or 0.5% over the span of five years.
Legal Services
Employment in the Legal Services sector in DC reached its peak in July 2008 with almost 38,000 employees, though it quickly
plummeted thereafter with the onset of the Great Recession. Since 2012, employment has leveled and hovered around the 30,000
employee mark. A subsector of the Professional and Business Services sector, Legal Services has observed dwindling employment with
a 14.7% drop over the ten-year period from September 2004 to September 2014. Most of this employment decline is concentrated in
the latter five years during which the average annual rate of decline measured 2.4%. Law firms are among the top tenants in DC’s 125
million-sq.-ft. office market, occupying approximately one-third of the entire market.

ECONOMIC
OVERVIEW
Educational Services
The Educational Services sector has observed a significant boost in employment over the past ten- and five-year periods. Between
September 2004 and September 2014, employment rose 54.7% with the addition of almost 22,000 jobs. Most of this employment growth
has been concentrated in the past five years, during which 17,700 people were added to the sector’s payroll. Although not an occupier
of office space, the Education sector is expected to continue expanding with the boom in “eds and meds,” particularly in DC and the
surrounding metropolitan area.
Health Care and Social Assistance
The Health Care and Social Assistance sector has experienced strong employment growth of 2.4% per annum between September 2009
and September 2014. However, the addition of 14,000 jobs between September 2004 and September 2014 has not led to a direct increase
in demand in the office market as the sector is not regarded as office-using.

INVESTMENT SALES
Foreign Purchasers
Foreign office real estate investment in DC has seen a steady increase over the past two years. The following chart represents foreign
capital investment in DC over the past five years. Over 50% of foreign investment purchases were concentrated in the last two of five
years. The capital has stemmed from a diverse group of investors encompassing Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. Israel has consistently
been a leader with regard to the total number of properties purchased.
The year-to-date numbers through Q3 2014 further emphasize the continued interest in DC’s office market. Year-to-date, eight properties
totaling over $1.6 billion worth of foreign capital and 3.0 million sq. ft. of space have been purchased. As Europe continues to show signs
of weakness and instability plagues areas of the Middle East and Asia, these figures are expected to remain stable as foreign investors
search for stronger and safer yield.

Foreign Sellers
Over the past two years, foreign capital has been among the least active when it comes to disposition of office assets in DC. Year-to-date
there has only been one disposition in DC from a foreign seller. In 2013, there was a handful, a majority of which came from Wereldhave
N.V.’s sale of 1401 New York Avenue and 701 8th Street, NW.

Office Development in the District of Columbia
According to a CoreNet Global Real Estate
survey in 2012, the national average of
sq. ft. occupied per person dropped from
225 sq. ft. in 2010 to 175 sq. ft. in 2012 and
is expected to reach 151 sq. ft. by 2017.

Square Feet (4Q 13–3Q 14)
As office-using employment growth in DC lags behind
the national average, DC’s office market continues to
experience subdued velocity. Leasing activity for deals
over 10,000 sq. ft. totaled approximately 2.1 million sq.
ft. in Q3 2014. Although eight out of the top 10 largest
deals were renewals–including some contractions–no
new growth was observed in DC. As of Q3 2014, CBRE
tracked the overall vacancy rate for the city at 11.3%, an
increase of 90 basis points over the past year.
The 12-month trailing total net absorption was negative
824,000 sq. ft., emphasizing the current lackluster
environment in the DC office market. Though nearly
50% of the decrease in occupied space is due to one
large tenant relocating from DC to Virginia (Intelsat),
the number reflects the manner in which today’s
tenants are using office space.
In an attempt to reduce costs, firms–especially law
firms–look to real estate costs to bump up their bottom
line. Space efficiency trends such as free-address
workstations and telecommuting are allowing for a more

per square foot (full service)
flexible work environment and reducing the need for
office space. Over the past year, seven out of the top 10
largest law firm leases involved a contraction in space,
decreasing the occupancy by an average of 22%.
As the DC office market continues to grapple with
uncertainty, landlords are looking to stabilize their
assets by renewing tenants of all sizes before their lease
expiration dates. Over the past 12 months, renewals
accounted for 43% of lease transactions over 10,000 sq.
ft. This number jumps to 63% when analyzing deals
50,000 sq. ft. or larger.
New construction in DC remains limited, as the current
under construction square footage is well below DC’s
five-year annual average of 1.9 million sq. ft. There
are currently 1.6 million sq. ft. of private sector space
currently under construction, with a preleasing rate of
38%, mostly to legal firms.1 Venable LLP recently agreed
to occupy 245,000 sq. ft. at 600 Massachusetts Avenue,
NW, which broke ground in the third quarter of 2014.
660 North Capitol Street, NW, a 200,000-sq.-ft., trophy
Office Development
project in NoMa, also broke ground in the third quarter, though
on a speculative basis. The project is the third building to break
ground in DC on a speculative basis over the past 18 months,
suggesting developers’ growing sense of confidence that leasing
activity will strengthen in the coming years.
Investment sales held steady across DC in 2014. During the first
nine months of 2013, sales volume totaled $2.85 billion, compared
to $2.86 billion during the same time period this year. The largest
sale year to date was 555 12th Street, NW, which sold for $505
million, or approximately $640 per sq. ft.2 Over the past 20 years,
the price per sq. ft. for Class A and B buildings over 50,000 sq.
ft. has grown 7.6%, as institutional investors continue to seek a
historically stable real estate market.
While employment plays an important role in swaying office
space demand, firms are focused on reducing overhead costs
by employing greater efficiency in space use. As companies
continue consolidation and densification, the expected increase
in employment—particularly in the office-using sector—over the
next two years will not lead to a well-defined expansion in their
corporate footprint.
Approximately 1.3 million sq. ft. of private sector office space is
scheduled to deliver by 2015, and while demand is expected to
strengthen, overall vacancy rates will remain elevated at above
11%. The trophy segment of the market, however, will continue
to outperform other product types, as the development pipeline
remains limited and a high demand for trophy space continues.
Trends in Square Footage per Employee
An emerging trend in the global office market, space
efficiency has been substantially present in DC. A major
driver of this trend is firms’ emphasis on maximizing their
bottom line by cutting overhead costs. Firms, particularly in
the legal services sector within DC, are focusing on reducing
their overall space requirement as well as the average sq.
ft. per employee. Meanwhile, advancements in technology
have enabled for a paper-less environment due to laptops,
mobile devices, and wireless internet. This has led to greater
flexibility in the workplace due to the reduced need for
permanent offices or dedicated office space.
Open floor plans have reduced the amount of space needed
by large offices while simultaneously creating a more
collaborative environment; this is considered a win-win in
today’s increasingly dynamic workplace. The trend is especially
evident among the federal government and law firms, two of
DC’s largest demand drivers.
According to a CoreNet Global Real Estate survey in 2012, the
national average of sq. ft. occupied per person dropped from
225 sq. ft. in 2010 to 175 sq. ft. in 2012 and is expected to reach
151 sq. ft. by 2017. Considering the benefits, it is no surprise
this trend has gained notoriety and prominence. As firms
have turned to more collaborative space use, their real estate
strategy has become more efficient while proving beneficial to
their bottom line. ¾

Retail Development in the District of Columbia
The city’s estimated median
household income is projected
to rise 15.0% over the next
five years to $77,143 in 2019.

Retail sales in the District of Columbia account for
approximately 79% of the $13 billion in total consumer
expenditures, creating a retail opportunity gap of an
estimated $2.8 billion.3 This strong retail demand is
related in-part to DC’s high volume of tourists. A
record-breaking 19.0 million tourists traveled to DC in
2013. These millions of tourists spent a total of $6.69
billion during their visits, which comprised 8.9% and
5.9% increases in domestic and international tourist
spending, respectively.4
DestinationDC expects total visitor volume to grow
by 2 to 3% each year through 2017.4 Local purchasing
capacity also influences retail demand in DC. The
city’s estimated median household income is projected

to rise 15.0% over the next five years to $77,143 in 2019.
In comparison, the U.S. is projected to see a 4.0%
increase from the current year median household
income of $51,352. The statistics detailed above show
DC’s potential for growth in retail demand.5
The DC retail market has experienced several
significant shifts, one of which is the expansion of the
restaurant scene. A host of restaurants have opened
in recent years in areas such as the 14th Street and
H Street corridors, and have played an instrumental
role in transforming DC’s retail sector. This trend has
continued in 2014, as indicated in the graph on the
following page by the projected 4.5% jump in sales for
food services and drinking places.6

The openings of DBGB, Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouse
and Le Diplomate illustrate this restaurant-centric trend. Rose’s
Luxury, which recently opened in DC, was ranked as the number
one restaurant in the U.S. in 2014.8 These high-end openings
coincided with numerous quick-serve openings. DC claimed
the third best growth market for quick service restaurants in a
2014 study that examined quick-serve restaurant traffic growth
forecasts for 2013 to 2018.9 The restaurant industry’s growth
indicates the ever-evolving character of DC’s retail landscape.
While sales increased for food services and drinking places, the
increase was even more dramatic for other sectors, including:
clothing & clothing accessories, food & beverage, general
merchandise, furniture, and health & personal care stores.
Over the past year, retail sales for general merchandise have
increased an estimated 27.3%, by roughly the same percentage
that non-store retailer sales have declined. Thus, DC retail sales
have experienced an overall increase from 2013 to 2014, but
performance has varied considerably according to segment.10

Finally, the opening of CityCenterDC, a 1.6 million-sq.-ft.,
mixed-use development (with 185,000 sq. ft. of retail space), was a
capstone event for DC’s growing urban retail market. In planning
and design since 2003, CityCenterDC has provided a highend retail anchor in the downtown with retailers such as Allen
Edmonds, Hugo Boss, Burberry, Longchamp and Arc’teryx. ¾

Market, now home to Giant. Dine at Convivial, opening this spring. Take
your pooch and head out of your luxe apartment for a stroll that ends up

Natural Gas. Efficient by Nature.
Including natural gas in
our project was a very
smart decision.
Plan Early Sell Faster with Natural Gas.
If you don’t incorporate natural gas as a primary energy source into your plans, you’re missing a big opportunity.
Savvy builders know that their clients prefer natural gas because of the comfort, cost savings, reliability and environmental
benefits it affords.
It’s easier than ever to include natural gas.
• Attractive design alternatives are available through the use of the industry’s latest meters. They’re smaller, allowing for their
placement in aesthetically pleasing locations.
• Innovative piping options such as 2 psi delivery systems, and flexible copper and corrugated stainless steel piping help to
reduce first costs.
• Distributed Meter Rooms (DMR) provide the flexibility for individual unit meters to be installed in vertically stacked central gas
meter rooms on each floor in a high rise multifamily building.
Call Washington Gas for a free consultation.
The Engineered Sales Team at Washington Gas is the resource you can count on for all multifamily development natural gas applications.
Our representatives include a variety of professionals with the technical skills to understand your requirements and walk you through each
stage of the process.

The District of Columbia has recorded strong prospects
for expansion in the residential real estate market due
to its population, employment, and income growth.
DC continues to see robust population growth, while
the share of young professionals has grown at an
even faster pace.
Between 2012 and 2013, DC’s population increased
2.1% to 646,500, while the 25 to 44 year old cohort
expanded by 3.5% to 235,800. During the same time
period, the labor market in DC observed overall
growth, albeit at a slower pace. DC added 10,400
jobs in 2013, an increase of 1.4%. Meanwhile, the

unemployment rate continued along a downward

The median home sales price in DC rose 3.0%
over the year from $461,000 in August 2013 to
$475,000 in August 2014. Meanwhile, according
to a report by CoreLogic, DC observed a 7.1%
increase in foreclosure activity between September
2013 and September 2014. During the same month,
DC recorded the 9th highest share of homes in
foreclosures among U.S. states, at 2.3% of inventory.

Looking ahead, the population, employment, and income
of the region are forecast to grow. DC is projected to see its
population increase by 10.2% between 2014 and 2019, while
median household income is projected to rise by 15.0% to
$77,143 during the same time frame.3 According to Moody’s
Analytics, total metropolitan employment as well as officeusing employment is expected to gain traction between 2015
and 2017.
DC Apartment Size
The average size of a one-bedroom apartment in DC has been
on a downward trajectory over the past decade. While the
previous unit average was approximately 850 sq. ft. through the
early 2000s, this figure has dropped to around 725 to 750 sq. ft.,
excluding the new phenomenon of micro-units. Renters have
become more interested in assessing the total monthly rent,
rather than the quoted rent per sq. ft. Moreover, the size of
apartments is a function of both the proximity to the Metrorail
as well as the overall monthly rent.
DC Supply and Absorption
There are approximately 12,000 units set to deliver in the next
36 months in DC, compared to about 10,000 units during the
same time last year.4 Though most new product is concentrated
in new markets—including Capitol Riverfront, H Street, Mt.
Vernon Triangle and NoMa—the developed markets continue
to see new projects coming online. Given the recent surge in
DC’s population, absorption has remained stable.

Hospitality Development in the District of Columbia

The opening of the 1,175-room Marriott Marquis in
May 2014 was a watershed moment for the DC hotel
and hospitality sector. The hotel by itself represents
the largest number of net new rooms to deliver to the
market in any given year since the WDCEP began
tracking development projects in 2001.
Since 2001, the average hotel occupancy rate for DC
has fluctuated between 69% and 76%. Even with the
addition of 848 net new hotel rooms to the market
since the beginning of 2008, the DC occupancy rate has
remained consistent ranging from 74% to 76%1.
Given DC’s market stability hotel developers appear
to be undeterred by the opening of the Marriott
Marquis as there are another 2,320 hotel rooms under
construction and scheduled to deliver by 2017. These
10 projects will add 1,908 new rooms to the market.
In addition, there are another four hotel projects
that could break ground in the next six to 12 months,
representing an additional 1,314 net new rooms.

While hotel projects make up the majority of the
hospitality development sector, there were several
notable non-hotel groundbreakings in the past year.
The construction of the 47,000 sq. ft. Barry Farm
Recreation Center started in Q4 2013 (site demolition
started in Q2 2013), the new Williams Arena at the
Southeast Tennis and Learning Center broke ground
in Q2 2014 (phase I delivered in Q4 2014) and the $800
million Museum of the Bible started the renovation of
300 D Street, SW in Q3 2014. ¾

Since 2001, more than 13.1 million square feet of
education (primary/secondary, college/university) and
medical space has been built or modernized in DC,
with another 3.5 million square feet currently under
construction. During this time DC has averaged about
946,000 square feet of deliveries per year, a total that
will be surpassed in 2014, 2015 and 2016.
While DC is internationally known for its colleges,
universities and hospitals, it has been the primary and
secondary schools (public and private) that have built
the most facilities, accounting for nearly half of the 16.6
million square feet completed since 2001 and currently
under construction. This trend has continued over the
past six years.

With enrollment and competition increasing, colleges
and universities have built more than 4.7 million
square feet of new dorms and academic centers in
DC since 2001, with another 1.7 million square feet

DC Development Report • 2014/2015 Edition

APPENDIX
APPENDIX
Methodology
The goal of the Washington, DC Economic Partnership was to create a comprehensive database of development activity that would
help us find answers to the following questions:
• What is the make-up of development activity?
• Where is the development activity occurring?
• What are the trends?
• How much is being invested in our community?
However, before we could begin to collect development information we had to create a methodology to give us guidance on what data to
assemble on each project and which projects to include in our database. The following is a brief explanation of what types of data we try
to obtain for each development and how we gather that information. While our database of projects is constantly being updated, for the
purposes of this publication, all data reflects project status, design and information as of September 2014.
Architect
General Contractor
As one of our primary sources of information, we maintain
information on the architects involved in the design of
the project.
As one of our primary sources of information, we maintain
information on the general contractors involved in the
construction of the project.
Construction Type
Green Development
Components of each project are categorized as one of the
following: New Construction, Renovation or Infrastructure. If a
project includes both new construction and renovation we try to
record each portion separately.
If a project contains “green elements” or sustainable design
features it is considered a green project.
Delivery
The delivery date is an estimate of when a project is scheduled
to be completed. For completed projects, this is the date that the
first certificate of occupancy was issued for the project. If no
certificate of occupancy was issued then we use the date supplied
by a primary or secondary source.
Description
Complex projects and mixed-use developments include a
description that highlights key components and other points of
interest about the development project.
Developer
As one of our primary sources of information, we maintain
information on developers and other controlling interests in
development projects.
Financing Sources
Whenever possible, we identify public and private
funding sources.
82
© 2014 Washington, DC Economic Partnership
Groundbreaking
The groundbreaking date is an estimate of when a project is
scheduled to start. For projects that are under construction
or completed the groundbreaking date can be the date of a
groundbreaking event or the date that a building permit was
issued on a project.
Hotel Rooms
For hotel projects, we track the number of new and renovated
rooms. The number of rooms does not necessarily reflect net
new rooms because it does not account for rooms taken out of
the inventory.
Imagery
Many of the projects in our database include one or more photos,
renderings, elevations or other illustrations. In most cases these
images are provided by either a primary or secondary source or
are photos taken by the WDCEP. In many cases renderings and
illustrations are concepts and may not reflect the final design.
Lead Tenant
The lead tenant could be the first lease signed in a new or
renovated building or the tenant that occupies the most space.
APPENDIX
Methodology
LEED
Status
When possible we track the LEED (Leadership in Energy
& Environmental Design) certification level that has either
been obtained or planned to achieve. The level listed may
reflect the entire project or one component of a mixed-use or
multi-phased project.
Each development project is tracked by status and defined by one
of the following categories:
Location
• Medium Term: Projects that have the potential to break
ground in 18–36 months. These projects are considered part
of DC’s pipeline.
The physical address is used when possible; however when no
address is possible the closest intersection is used.
Project Cost
We track total development costs including both hard and soft
costs associated with a project as well as land costs. Whenever
possible, we use actual costs provided by primary sources.
Sometimes, however, it is necessary to estimate project costs
based on historical information. Because of the tremendous
amount of construction activity and staff resources required to
maintain the data, we established a minimum threshold of $5
million to be included in the database (from 2001–8/2009 the
minimum was $1 million).
Project Name
Project names are generally the name of the building or the
development. However, when projects are referenced by different
sources with different names, we use the most commonly
referenced name of the project. When there is no name for the
project, projects are referenced by address.
Residential Units
For residential projects, we track the number of units of both
new construction and renovation. The number of new residential
units does not necessarily reflect the net new units on the market
because it does not account for units taken out of the inventory.
Square Footage
Whenever possible, we try to obtain the total square footage
of the project. For mixed-use projects, we break out the square
footage associated with each major use.
• Long Term: Projects that are not expected to break ground
for at least 36 months or longer. These projects are considered
part of DC’s pipeline.
• Near Term: Projects that have the potential to break ground
in the next 18 months. These projects are considered part of
DC’s pipeline.
• Under Construction: Projects are defined as under
construction once a building permit has been issued on the
project or a primary source has indicated that construction
has begun.
• Completed: Projects are defined as completed once the
first certificate of occupancy is issued on a project, except in
the case of a multi-phase project, in which each phase of the
project is tracked separately. If no certificate of occupancy
was issued, then we use the date supplied by a primary or
secondary source.
Use
Each project is categorized by type of use. For mixed-use
developments, we capture the square footage or units/rooms for
each of the following:
• Community1
• Industrial4
• Residential
• Education2
• Medical5
• Retail
• Entertainment3
• Museum6
• Hotel
• Office
Ward
The Ward identified for each project is based off of the 2012 Ward
boundaries.
Zip Code
Zip codes are tracked for mapping purposes as defined by data
from our geographic information system (GIS) and may not
reflect the actual U.S. Postal zip code for that address.
1. e.g. library, recreational center, place of worship 2. e.g. K–12, colleges, universities 3. e.g. movie theaters, live performance venues

Methodology
Where do we get our information?
Adding or Updating Information
To capture the most comprehensive inventory, we use a variety
of sources to gather information about development activity, and
whenever possible, we contact the developers directly to get the
most up-to-date and accurate information available and do site
location visits to verify the project’s status. Often our research
uncovers discrepancies in available data on project information
such as square footage, cost, number of units, etc. When
this occurs, we try to reconcile the differences by speaking
directly with parties involved in the development. Some of our
sources include:
If you are looking for information about a specific project and
you do not see it on our list, it may have been omitted for one of
the following reasons.
u
It did not meet the $5 million threshold. There is simply
too much activity for us to keep accurate information about
every improvement made in the District of Columbia.
Therefore, we only collect data for projects valued over $5
million.
v
We are missing a key piece of information. Generally we
will include projects in our database even if we do not have
a complete set of data available. However, some projects are
omitted from our reports and analysis if they are missing
key data that we use to query or analyze the database.
w
We have questions about the validity of the data. We
make every effort to acquire data from multiple and
primary sources to validate our information. Frequently,
we encounter discrepancies in project details. Whenever
possible we try to reconcile those discrepancies.
Sometimes, we are unable, and we may exclude the project
because of an unresolved question about the data.
x
We may not know about it. Although our data collection
methods are comprehensive, we may miss projects. We
discover new information almost every day, and we are
constantly adding projects as we become aware of them.
