Deborah Berke Partners recently completed the two-year renovation of Washington D.C.'s iconic Wardman Tower. First built in 1928 by developer Harry Wardman and architect Mihran Mesrobian, the 9-story Georgian Revival tower was once home to Dwight D. Eisenhower, Lyndon B. Johnson, Herbert Hoover, and Marlene Dietrich. In 1984, the building was added to the National Register of Historic Places.
Aiming to maintain the tower's original luxurious aesthetic, the original window configurations, balconies, and doors were reintroduced. Thousands of square feet of the facade were also renovated with brick, stone, metal, and cast iron.
The renovated tower features 32 two- to four-bedroom homes ranging from 2,200-4,600 square feet, and whose interiors were designed by Deborah Berke, Darryl Carter, and Jeff Akseizer. The homes are currently selling from $2.5 million up to $9 million (so far, 17 of the homes have been sold or are under contract). The residences come with luxurious finishes like wide oak panel flooring, automated window shades, and heated mosaic-tile bathroom floors.
Residents will also have access to rooftop terraces, a 2,000 sq.ft. fitness center and yoga studio, two clubrooms, private outdoor garden, a two-level, below-ground garage, and luxury concierge services.
