This headquarters expansion project involved the joining the 51,000 SF Democratic National Committee (DNC) Headquarters with the neighboring Democratic National Club and included extensive interior and exterior renovation of both buildings.  The challenge was to unite the two unique buildings with a unified architectural design.  This was accomplished by constructing a bridge that provides circulation between the two structures; houses meeting rooms, conference space, a broadcast studio; and allows access to existing utility easements.  Orr Partners served as Project Manager and was responsible for managing the design, renovation and construction of the entire facility.  The result was a truly collaborative effort that successfully combined a distinctive mix of project management, architectural innovation and structural / interior construction that turned two unique buildings into one unified and functional structure.  In 2006, Orr Partners received the NAIOP award for “Best Renovation – Urban” for the DNC project.
