Former DHS Headquarters to Be Converted Into DC Multifamily

Willow Bridge Property Company has launched the 264-unit luxury multifamily community “1125” with a groundbreaking ceremony at 1125 15th St NW in Washington, D.C.

Formerly the home of the Department of Homeland Security near Thomas Circle, the project will convert the 50-year-old office building into modern residential units. The development will also include over 2,500 square feet of ground-floor retail and below-grade parking.

The architecture firm for the project is Hikock Cole. The planned 13-story high-rise will offer studio, one, and two-bedroom residences, ranging from 477 to 1,297 square feet. The community is just a few blocks from The White House and directly across the street from Midtown Center, an 867,000-square-foot trophy office building. Midtown Center also has 39,934 square feet of retail.

“This office-to-multifamily conversion project will contribute much-needed housing to the area, and we believe residents will appreciate the central location and convenient access to everything D.C. has to offer,” said Mark Kirchmeyer, EVP of Development at Willow Bridge.
