A Look at the New Fannie Mae Headquarters
The new headquarters for Fannie Mae on 15th Street NW will have quite a design.
Below are renderings — recently filed with DC’s Board of Zoning Adjustment — of the new office building that will replace The Washington Post headquarters in the 1100 block of 15th Street NW (map). Carr Properties, the building owner, is working with SHoP Architects and WDGArchitecture on the project.
Fannie Mae will lease 85 percent of the new building and will occupy starting in late 2017. More from the zoning filing:
Overall, the building, inclusive of the existing Columbia Center, will consist of approximately 1,252,060 square feet of gross floor area (GFA)…The proposed addition will contain approximately 838,480 square feet of GFA distributed throughout 12 floors with a retail mezzanine and a small portion of the penthouse. The addition will be constructed to a height of 130 feet as measured from the elevation at the midpoint of the building along 15th Street to the top of the parapet.
The Post is moving to One Franklin Square at 1301 K Street NW next year. More renderings of Fannie Mae’s new headquarters below:
