Roof deck of 880 P Street, NW

Italian cabinetry and Corian countertops. Floor-to-ceiling windows
and private balconies afford broad views outward and daylight
penetration within. In two-bedroom units, Raydoor fixed and sliding
partitions take advantage of the abundance of daylight to cast a
diffuse glow in the secondary bedroom.
The three market-rate buildings were each designed by a
separate team at SBA, all of which fell under Sponseller’s guidance,
making them as inextricably related yet individualized as siblings
can be. And the connections are more than just superficial: Several
internal passages link 880 P Street to its neighbor, 800 P, and they
share a bi-level, vegetated roof deck that offers ample outdoor
amenities such as a pool and several grilling stations. Below grade,
a 500-car garage spans the width of the two blocks, and loading
bays and storage for the Giant are located in a sub-basement to
reduce their impact on the neighborhood and maximize retail
floor area at ground level.

Amenity space for residents.
