655 New York features world-class design mixed with historic buildings and a sleek new modern mid-rise glass building. This one-of-a-kind signature Douglas Development and Brookfield Properties project is an assembly of 19 historic buildings on a triangle-shaped block between New York Avenue, 7th and L Streets in the city’s Mt. Vernon Square adjacent to the Washington Convention Center. 655 New York unites multiple pre-Civil War and historic row houses with two modern office towers to create a whole that is so much more than the sum of its parts. Each historic building has been preserved, renovated, and integrated into a new retail and office experience. The completed mega-complex features trophy office space and prime retail, helping to continue the renaissance of this neighborhood.
Watch Douglas Development move a historic building to preserve it within the 655 New York Avenue project.
