740 15th St NW Coworking Space Available in Washington, DC 20005

740 Fifteenth Street is prominently located on the corner of Fifteenth and H Streets NW, within steps of the White House and in the heart of D.C.’s historical Financial District. The building offers easy access to the McPherson Square and Metro Center Metro stations, as well as some of the region’s finest restaurants and hotels. Theodore Roosevelt was sitting one block away in the White House in 1907, when 740 Fifteenth Street delivered. The Neo-Classical Revival style building was designed by Wood, Donn and Deming, the District’s most prominent architectural practice of the time, and was constructed to accommodate a bank on the street level and eight floors of office space. Composed of concrete and Carnegie Steel, 740 Fifteenth’s exterior walls are clad with granite from Mt. Airy, North Carolina and its Corinthian columned facade symbolizes the strength of D.C.’s Financial District during the time of its construction. The Union Trust and Storage Company was the first to occupy the building in December 1907 and also financed the construction of this monumental asset. Formed in 1899, Union Trust served as a depository for material and fiduciary resources held by the District’s leading companies and wealthy individuals. Over the years, Union Trust consolidated into First American Bank, and the building remained its flagship headquarters until 1994, when the American Bar Association acquired the Class A building for its headquarters. 740 Fifteenth has anchored the corner of Fifteenth and H Street Northwest through economic expansions and recessions, 20 Presidents, four owners and several expansions that have elevated its distinguished presence. With interior renovations that have enhanced 740 Fifteenth’s historic qualities and timeless appeal, the building continues to stand as an iconic piece of America’s history.
