2100 L Street is located in the heart of DC's Golden Triangle—part of the Central Business District. One of the newest trophy office properties in the neighborhood, 2100 L Street was designed with modern features such as efficiency-maximizing floor-to-ceiling glass and 20,000-sf floor plates, low-emitting materials and ample ventilation to increase air quality, a green power source that provides 35% of the building's electricity, and energy-efficient design and fixtures.
The building's program includes a landscaped rooftop terrace and lounge offering dramatic skyline views, a penthouse conference center, a pocket park, a 3,000-sf fitness center, secure bike storage and maintenance station, an art gallery that will include a rotating exhibit by African American artists, and an outdoor statue honoring abolitionist U.S. Representative Thaddeus Stevens.
Adjacent to the new building, on the same parcel, is a 41,800-sf school building, originally constructed in 1868, which served as the Thaddeus Stevens Elementary School. It is being refurbished under a separate contract and will reopen as a DC Public School with an infant and toddler development center. Both projects give life to an important historic landmark and create a much needed resource for the community.
