Coming Soon: The New DCAR Office!

Coming Soon: The New DCAR Office!

DCAR has called 500 New Jersey Avenue its DC home for several years now, but we have exciting news: We’re one step closer to opening our brand new DC office! The tenants moved out this past weekend; now, we’re getting ready to begin work on the building to make sure it’s in tiptop shape. It’s a day we’ve long awaited, and we’re thrilled to be able to report this development.

The office is located at 1615 New Hampshire Avenue, near Dupont Circle, and we’ll have the entire third floor to ourselves.

See it on the map!

Among the amenities planned for the new DC headquarters are offices for some of our employees, private work space, a reception area, a 40-person classroom and a store well-stocked with all your REALTOR® needs. More details on the amenities will come soon, but we’re looking forward to sharing the information with you as we get it.

Colin Johnson, the 2017 DCAR president, issued the following statement Monday morning:

“We at DCAR, with combined design input from GCAAR, set out to build a space that not only serves today’s needs, but offers flexibility for future growth and association needs. The space features expandable meeting areas for large or small groups. It features entertainment/reception space for events for Association or outside organizational needs. We worked with several local groups in assisting in providing lessons learned to ensure we can take advantage of changing commercial needs in DC market space. We also worked with a local shared space company to provide insights for potential flexible office space needs. The vision for the first purchase in our more than 100-year history was to reflect proudly on the hard work and smart strategic thinking by members from the past, while capturing the mission to advocate, protect and promote the interests of our members and the public we serve. This new space will now be an added tool to ensure We continue to be the voice of real estate in the District, and aid us in ensuring homeowner rights are preserved.”

More details will be provided as we get them, and we hope to be able to give an estimated move-in date soon, but we wanted to share this excellent news with you as soon as we got it.

Until then, you can always reach us at our current DC office (500 New Jersey Ave. NW) or our Rockville office (15201 Diamondback Dr.), or you can contact us individually.
