The 348,000 square foot, all-glass building has just been awarded Gold LEED certification from USGBC – a de facto requirement of government agencies looking at new space. The designation is also the first for NoMa.
FERC was represented in the transaction by GSA. Dan Dooley and Scott Franklin of Tishman Speyer represented building ownership.
The FERC lease is one of a handful of such transactions inked in emerging submarkets in the District recently. In August the Bureau of Land Management announced it was taking 94,435 square feet at 20 M St. SE, a 190,600-square-foot office building in the heart of the Capitol Riverfront submarket.
In July, Kaiser Permanente announced it would be leasing 200,000 square feet at 700 Second St.--part of the newly delivered Station Place, a 507,273-square-foot office developed by Louis Dreyfus Property Group and Fisher Bros.
