Marx Realty Repositions Chinatown Office Building 

Marx Realty has completed the transformation of 819 7th St. NW in Washington, D.C., now called The Grogan. The 21,000-square-foot building, acquired in 2018, the property situated in D.C.’s Chinatown neighborhood. The penthouse’s mezzanine offers a cxafé and terrace with city views. 

“We are excited to capture the history of The Grogan Building and create a distinctive office space that exudes a boutique members-only, club-like ambiance,” said Craig Deitelzweig, CEO of Marx Realty. “We pioneered the now widely-recognized hospitality-infused aesthetic and essentially set a new benchmark for the workplace experience while creating a completely differentiated asset class in the office sector.” 

In addition to its holdings in New York and Atlanta, Marx Realty currently owns three office assets in Washington, D.C. – The Grogan at 819 7th St. NW, The Herald, located at 1307 New York Ave NW, and One Glover, located at 2121 Wisconsin Ave. NW, with its recently completed top-to-bottom repositioning.
