JV Secures WELL-Certification for Trophy Office Building in D.C.

A joint venture between the Meridian Group and Rockefeller Group has secured the WELL Building Core and Shell certification for 1901 L Street, a 202,000-square-foot trophy office building in Washington D.C. The property is the first-ever office building in D.C. to earn the certification.

To achieve certification, 1901 L Street will meet a variety of preconditions applicable to core and shell projects by attaining quality standards for air, water, nourishment, fitness, comfort and mind. The WELL Building certification is administered by the International WELL Building Institute.

The project is currently 70% preleased to a tenant roster that includes law firms Winston & Strawn and Axinn, Veltrop & Harkrider, as well as Rockefeller Group’s own D.C. headquarters. Mark Klug, Carroll Cavanaugh, Scott Frankel, Emily Eppolito and Dimitri Hajimihalis of CBRE are leading leasing efforts at the new development.
