SIGNATURE NEW ROSSLYN OFFICE/HOTEL DEVELOPMENT GOES ONLINE
Website Launch Introduces Business Community to High-Profile Waterview
Washington, DC -- September 13, 2000 -- TrizecHahn Office Properties and The JBG Companies today announced the launch of www.waterviewperspective.com, a comprehensive Internet site detailing the mixed-use Waterview complex, to be built at the foot of Key Bridge in Rosslyn, VA. Waterview encompasses a high-tech 24-story office tower, complementary retail and restaurants, and an adjoining 28-story hotel/condominium tower.
The Internet site is named waterviewperspective.com because the new property is being marketed as a new perspective" on prime Greater Washington office space. Located just outside the Districts borders, across the Potomac at the foot of Key Bridge, Waterviews 300-foot high towers will literally give office tenants a new visual perspective on the National Capital skyline. With its unprecedented mix of functions and amenities, Waterview is intended to give leading businesses a different perspective" of what Class A office space should entail. Together with 1801 N. Lynn (another JBG project), Waterview signals the evolution of The New Rosslyn" over the next few years.
Visually, the new website focuses on Waterviews architectural design by world-renowned Pei Cobb Freed & Partners, and on the panoramic skyline views the complex will offer. The sites content centers on the inter-connected benefits of this new centrally-located, mixed-use environment. When complete, the project will entail just under one million total square feet. At Waterview, international and local companies will have cutting edge offices; businesses can accommodate guests in the on-site hotel; top-level executives can commute to work by elevator from an upper-floor luxury condominium; and residents, hotel guests and office workers can shop and dine within the Waterview complex. The Rosslyn Metro station is also just two blocks away. There are also plans for a new entrance to the Rosslyn Metro station to be built on-site at Waterview.
The Waterview office tower is paid particular attention on the website, with detailed building specifications. Interested site visitors can sign up to receive e-mailed project updates, and members of the press are given access to fact sheets, press releases and reproduction-quality images of the Waterview project. Most importantly, visitors can also contact leasing agents (local offices of Cushman & Wakefield) directly via the website. No other single development project encompasses so many attributes in such a pivotal, core urban location (Waterview is five minutes from the White House, the Pentagon and Reagan National Airport), and within the next few months, a computer-animated virtual tour will bring Waterview and its New Rosslyn" surroundings to life.
