Property Overview
740 Fifteenth Street NW is a landmark office building at the intersection of Fifteenth and H Streets NW in Washington, D.C.'s historic financial district. Built in 1907 as the Union Trust Building, this nine-story Neo-Classical Revival structure features a grand Corinthian columned facade clad in North Carolina granite. The building occupies a premier location directly across from the U.S. Treasury Department and steps from the White House, placing it at the center of American commerce and government. Originally designed by distinguished local firm Wood, Donn and Deming for the Union Trust and Storage Company, the building was constructed with concrete and Carnegie Steel. It sits on the historic site of Wormley's Hotel, where the Compromise of 1877 was negotiated. For over a century, it has served prominent financial institutions and served as the American Bar Association's headquarters from 1994 onward. The property has undergone thoughtful renovations, including a major modernization in 1983 and again in 2014, preserving its historic character while providing contemporary amenities. Ownership has invested heavily into the amenities, which include a high end lobby, MASSIVE conference facility, spa quality fitness and locker rooms, and a bike room. Accessibility is strengthened by proximity to three Metro stations: Farragut West, Farragut North, and McPherson Square, making commuting convenient and reliable. Just steps from premier dining, retail, and cultural amenities, 740 Fifteenth offers an unparalleled opportunity for companies seeking a prestigious presence in Washington, D.C.’s core business hub.

LEED Certification Developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) is a green building certification program focused on the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of green buildings, homes, and neighborhoods, which aims to help building owners and operators be environmentally responsible and use resources efficiently. LEED certification is a globally recognized symbol of sustainability achievement and leadership. To achieve LEED certification, a project earns points by adhering to prerequisites and credits that address carbon, energy, water, waste, transportation, materials, health and indoor environmental quality. Projects go through a verification and review process and are awarded points that correspond to a level of LEED certification: Platinum (80+ points) Gold (60-79 points) Silver (50-59 points) Certified (40-49 points)
ENERGY STAR® Energy Star is a program run by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) that promotes energy efficiency and provides simple, credible, and unbiased information that consumers and businesses rely on to make well-informed decisions. Thousands of industrial, commercial, utility, state, and local organizations partner with the EPA to deliver cost-saving energy efficiency solutions that protect the climate while improving air quality and protecting public health. The Energy Star score compares a building’s energy performance to similar buildings nationwide and accounts for differences in operating conditions, regional weather data, and other important considerations. Certification is given on an annual basis, so a building must maintain its high performance to be certified year to year. To be eligible for Energy Star certification, a building must earn a score of 75 or higher on EPA’s 1 – 100 scale, indicating that it performs better than at least 75 percent of similar buildings nationwide. This 1 – 100 Energy Star score is based on the actual, measured energy use of a building and is calculated within EPA’s Energy Star Portfolio Manager tool.
