by John Nelson

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In two separate releases, co-developers Hoffman & Associates and Madison Marquette have announced that they sold their stake in The Wharf, a 3.5 million-square-foot mixed-use destination in southwest Washington, D.C. The Public Sector Pension Investment Board (PSP Investments), a pension fund investor based in Quebec, is now the sole owner of The Wharf, following more than a decade of having a minority stake in the development. The Wharf was constructed over the course of 15 years by Hoffman & Associates and Madison Marquette. The mixed-use neighborhood features a mile of waterfront development along the Potomac River. The sales price was not shared in either announcement, but Green Street News reports that Hoffman & Associates and Madison Marquette sold their stake at a $1.8 billion valuation. Previous components at The Wharf have sold in recent years and were thus not included in the sale to PSP Investments, including 300 condominiums, two office buildings and the Willard InterContinental Washington hotel, which Willard Investments purchased and rebranded in 2022. The Wharf was delivered by the sellers in two separate phases. Phase I opened in October 2017 and included three hotels, two multifamily and condominium buildings and 210,000 square feet of retail, …

Commanders and District of Columbia Announce New Stadium, Mixed-Use Development, Team Pledges $2.7B Investment

by Taylor Williams

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The NFL’s Washington Commanders have announced plans to develop a new football stadium in Washington, D.C., (“the District”), as well as a surrounding mixed-use destination. The team, which currently plays at FedEx Field in Landover, Md., has pledged to invest at least $2.7 billion into financing the project. The District has committed to a $500 million investment for the new stadium, which is expected to open in 2030. The site spans 180 acres within the Robert Francis Kennedy (RFK) campus on the city’s east side. The Commanders, formerly known as the Redskins, are developing the new 65,000-seat stadium in partnership with the District, which recently gained control of the campus via the D.C. Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium Campus Revitalization Act. The legislation, which took effect in January, gave the District the ability to develop the campus for a mix of uses, lifting the restrictions that were in place under the previous lease. The legislation also required that 30 percent of the RFK campus be reserved for parks, trails and open space, not including a 32-acre riparian area along the Anacostia River. As part of the larger development, the Commanders plan to bring a variety of commercial …
