Property Group Partners today announced that JLL’s Doug Mueller and Evan Behr have been engaged to execute a new leasing and brand strategy for Capitol Crossing, one of the largest and most complicated developments in Washington, D.C. The 2.2 million-square-foot mixed-use development, built atop I-395, recently delivered the first phase, at 200 Massachusetts Avenue, N.W., of the five-building project.

“Property Group Partners has taken a developer’s dream and masterfully made Capitol Crossing a reality,” said JLL Managing Director Evan Behr. “From the location to the views to the impeccable development quality to the massive infrastructure that is Capitol Crossing, we know the market will be excited to better understand not only what’s happening now, but more importantly, what’s coming online soon.”

JLL’s Washington, D.C. Agency Leasing team will lead all branding, marketing and office leasing activity at Capitol Crossing. Streetsense has been tapped to lead the leasing of the estimated 100,000 square feet of amenity driven, primarily Food & Beverage, retail space.

“Our landmark project bridges the city, goes beyond LEED® Platinum and is creating a dynamic destination and neighborhood with the highest-quality most efficient office space available in the city,” said David Happ, Senior Vice President, Leasing & Operations, Property Group Partners. “Doug, Evan and their agency leasing team at JLL are the right fit for the project and bring an invigorated focus to leasing efforts at 200 and 250 Massachusetts Avenue, as well as the project’s next phases of development.”

All buildings at Capitol Crossing will exceed LEED® Platinum certification, including 200 and 250 Massachusetts Avenue. 200 Massachusetts Avenue, located at 2nd Street and Massachusetts Avenue, NW, offers 430,500 square feet across 12 stories. It is adjacent to 250 Massachusetts Avenue which is comprised of 566,136 square feet across two towers connected by a 60,000-square foot “super floor,” and will deliver in the third quarter of 2019. Designed by premier architecture firm Kevin Roche John Dinkeloo and Associates, the buildings feature a cantilevered slab structural system that enables perimeter offices to be column-free. Best in market amenities and exciting retailers will fill the Capitol Crossing neighborhood.

“To lease a project of this scale and magnitude is a once in a career opportunity,” said JLL Managing Director Doug Mueller, “We look forward to bringing our expertise and fresh approach to Capitol Crossing and Property Group Partners. Our goal is not only to attract top tenants, but to build a new community and impact the city’s future.”
