Lowe Enterprises hosted a ceremony on March 29 to mark the start of of its $70 million redevelopment of 1400 Crystal Drive in Crystal City, Va. <\/em>Government, business and civic leaders <\/em>were present at the event, among them Mary Hughes Hynes, chair of the Arlington <\/em>County Board, as well as a representative of Lowe Enterprises.<\/em><\/p>\n

The property was formerly known as 1411 \"\"<\/a><\/em><\/em>Jefferson Davis Hwy. It is located in the <\/em><\/em>heart of Crystal City, only minutes from <\/em>the Pentagon, Downtown Washington, Reagan National Airport and Capitol Hill.\u00a0<\/em>1400 Crystal Drive is also within walking distance of shops, hotels, Long Bridge Park and such restaurants as Morton\u2019s of Chicago, Ted\u2019s <\/em>Montana Grill, McCormick & Schmick’s and Jaleo. On-site amenities include a delicatessen, a fitness center, property management and a penthouse terrace.<\/p>\n

Lowe Enterprises bought the property in 2008 on behalf of an investment client. The company serves as property and development manager, and plans to turn the 13-story <\/em>building into a state-of-the-art, 308,000-square-foot, Class A office establishment. The property is designed with the intent to attain LEED Gold certification.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe building is currently being stripped down to its structural concrete frame. A new floor-<\/em>to-ceiling glass facade will be installed to maximize natural light, provide energy efficiency and capture the spectacular views,\u201d Harmar Thompson, senior vice president of Lowe Enterprises, stated in a press release.<\/p>\n

Plans call for the reorientation of the building lobby toward the intersection of 15th Street <\/em>and Crystal Drive in order to improve access. When finished, the building will also include a penthouse terrace, state-of-the-art mechanical and electrical systems, elevators, reconfigured floors, a fitness center and a concierge.<\/p>\n

The Whiting-Turner Contracting Co. is the general contractor, with Lincoln Property Co. in charge of leasing, and architectural services provided by\u00a0 Fox <\/em>Architects. Construction is expected to be completed in April 2013.<\/p>\n

\u201c1400 Crystal Drive will enhance the submarket by providing an efficient, environmentally\u00a0sensitive, state-of-the-art office building within the heart of Crystal City,\u201d said Thompson.<\/p>\n
