Gilbane Development Company has acquired 3601 Wilson Boulevard, a prominent six-story, 121,200-square-foot office building in the Virginia Square/GMU Metro submarket.

“3601 Wilson Boulevard’s proximity to Metro transit, job centers, and retail amenities positions it as an ideal location for a sophisticated residential community in Arlington,” said Robert V. Gilbane, Jr, Senior Vice President, Gilbane Development Company. “We’re grateful to the amazing team at Savills, led by the incomparable Rick Rome, Demetri Koutrouvelis, and Brandon Hamm, who helped identify and close on this unique opportunity.”

The property will undergo adaptive reuse to become a boutique, upscale residential community featuring 94 market-rate units, 5,637 square feet of ground-floor retail space, and 207 parking spaces in a below-grade garage located immediately adjacent to the Virginia Square-GMU metro entrance.

3601 Wilson will feature units ranging from one bedroom to three bedrooms, expansive windows, custom closets, high-end finishes, and appliances throughout each unit. Construction is anticipated to start in January 2026, pending design and permitting approvals.
