Tuesday 30 April 5:30 - Morrison Clark Hotel, 1015 L Street (enter on 11th St)
Presentation on the construction/renovation/expansion of the Morrison Clark.
This project is approved and has completed all reviews required by the City, HPRB and ANC.
As we have not seen the plans since they came through the neighborhood/ANC in 2008 I asked the developers if they would convene a meeting to present the final plans for all to understand.
They will bring a model of the new building and will be able to walk all through what to expect during the coming months as construction continues. Please come with any and all questions about the new development and construction.
Present will be: RP Properties, Forrester Construction, the Architect, and Morrison Clark General Manager

Construction to begin on Morrison Clark Inn Addition
From the Forrester Construction web site. I have received a number of queries about this and since approval for the building was back in 2008, I am going to see if we can arrange for them to come brief the community or ANC on their plans.
PS - note the historic carriage house which you can view by walking down a narrow alley of 11th Street behind the existing hotel addition (built about 20 years ago) on the North end of the building.
February 26, 2013 - Forrester Construction Company is pleased to announce that it has recently begun work on the addition to the Morrison-Clark Inn, located at 1015 L Street, NW, Washington, DC. Originally built in 1864 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Victorian era hotel will be expanded by 43,000 square feet, incorporating neighboring historic structures into the overall design.
The new addition to the inn requires preservation of a 1700s carriage house, one of the oldest buildings in Washington, DC, keeping the exterior intact while completely renovating the interior. The façades of a neighboring rectory and 1880s townhouse will also become part of the space and will be maintained during construction by external bracing and underpinnings. The hotel addition will be six stories with 56 guest rooms featuring high-end finishes, a central courtyard connecting the buildings and an expansion of the below grade parking garage.
For more than a year, Forrester provided preconstruction services assisting the owner and design teams in the development of multiple design packages and a variety of cost saving strategies. The Forrester team worked with Architecture, Inc., the architecture firm providing support for the core and shell of the building. Forrester also partnered with Forrest Perkins, the architecture firm outfitting the interiors.
“Combining multiple historic façades into one hotel is quite exciting,” says Vic Bonardi, Forrester vice president of preconstruction and design-build services. “Our preconstruction work will be highly beneficial during the construction process to ensure the project is delivered within the timeframe and budget outlined. This is a wonderful opportunity for Forrester to leverage its extensive experience in the preservation of DC historic buildings.” The project is scheduled to be complete by April 2014.
