This office to residential conversion, now called CityHouse Old Town in Alexandria, involves converting a former 200,000 SF office building into luxury apartments comprised of about 200 homes ranging from 525 SF studios to deluxe three-bedroom apartments with a den to accommodate hybrid work and private wraparound terraces for the majority of homes. The office building, located at 1101 King Stl., was built in 1983, and much of the exterior will remain the same, in context with the city of Alexandria.
The seven-story property, with its six-story interior atrium, rises above the surrounding buildings and provides panoramic views of Old Town, the riverfront, and DC monuments. Residents will have access to a concierge, private club suite, and state-of-the-art fitness facility, as well as a wide array of food & beverage destinations just a few steps away from their door.
Cooper Carry provided architectural design services and worked with RD Jones & Associates for interior design.
The project broke ground in early 2024 and is expected to be completed by the fall of 2025.
