Cassidy & Pinkard Colliers Team with Gensler to Design a New Office in NW Washington, DC

WASHINGTON, DC -- Cassidy & Pinkard Colliers, one of the country's leading full-service commercial real estate firms, with expertise in sales, financing, leasing, property management, and project management hired longtime partner, Gensler, to assist with real estate evaluation, space planning and design for the new 100-person office.

The result is Cassidy & Pinkard Colliers’ award-winning DC workplace, the recipient of the 2009 Pinnacle Award. The Pinnacle award is the most prestigious design honor bestowed by the International Interior Design Association.

Gensler reviewed various real estate options throughout the DC metro area before recommending that Cassidy & Pinkard Colliers lease 27,000 square feet of space in a newly renovated downtown building located at 2101 L Street, NW.

The unfinished shell allowed the design team to think strategically about creating a sophisticated office space that accurately reflected the client’s brand while providing functional areas for client meetings and entertainment, and a space that supports employee collaboration and workplace satisfaction.

The design team was also tasked with implementing construction and design practices in order to seek LEED certification. Rand Construction served as the general contractor.
