- On Friday, April 5th, the Department of General Services and Mayor Muriel Bowser cut the ribbon at DC Health's new headquarters in the Anacostia neighborhood of Ward 8.
DC Health's new headquarters are in Reunion Square, a redevelopment project supported by the first-ever Tax Increment Financing in Ward 8. At full build-out, the multi-phase, 1.5 million-square-foot development will have 950,000 square feet of office space, 130,000 square feet of neighborhood-serving retail, and a 480-unit multi-family residential development, including affordable and senior living units.
The facility includes contemporary office spaces, well-lit hallways, and a state-of-the-art Command Center with a dedicated emergency generator. Additionally, it features a fitness center, radiant pantries, conference rooms, versatile multipurpose rooms, a media room, various collaborative spaces, two outdoor terraces, and a shared courtyard.
This nearly $50 million project offers a warm welcome center to receive residents for DC Health," said Department of General Services (DGS) Director Delano Hunter. "We are also proud that 106 District residents were involved in the construction of the project, with 59 coming from Wards 7 and 8. As we continue to build, maintain, and sustain the District's facilities, we are proud to work with DC Health in supporting the health and wellbeing of District residents.
The new DC Health headquarters means approximately 700 DC Health employees join a growing network of healthcare partners and providers in Ward 8. The move is also part of the Mayor's efforts to locate more DC Government agencies in neighborhoods East of the River to catalyze economic growth.
