Clark demolished an existing firehouse and constructed a nine-story building with one level of below-grade parking. The building features a new fire station for the Washington, D.C. Fire Department and a 20,000 square-foot squash facility with eight regulation-size courts. The upper six floors of the building contains 61 affordable housing units. The firehouse and squash facility façade is comprised of metal panels and curtain wall, while the residential levels are clad in fiber-cement panels with punch windows.
The project is designed per LEED® Silver standards and features a green roof.
