Construction will begin in March 2003 on the first building of Trammel Crow's planned $300-million Patriot Plaza in Washington, D.C. The first phase, designed to accommodate a government or private tenant, consists of a 280,000-sf office facility pre-engineered to meet stringent security regulations, including the framework to accommodate blast-proof windows, 30-foot setbacks from the curb, a hardened shell, and progressive collapse avoidance.

The project is being developed with architectural firm Gensler, blast consultant Weidlinger, and security consultant Sako. Completion is expected in the fourth quarter of 2004. The three-building Patriot Plaza complex will eventually total almost 1 million sf.
