reprintsNexstar Media Group has re-upped and expanded to a 28,766-square-foot lease at 2121 Wisconsin Avenue, a 110,960-square-foot office building in Washington, D.C.’s Glover Park neighborhood, with landlord, JBG Smith (JBGS).
The news media company currently occupies a portion of the third floor of the building. When its new space is ready next January, it will occupy the entire third floor and part of the first floor.
Additionally, CommuniKids, a language immersion preschool, has signed an 8,895-square-foot lease in the building and will open its doors next summer.
Cushman & Wakefield (CWK) facilitated both leases on behalf of the landlord.
“For tenants, the much-higher-than-average ceiling heights allows for television studios to be created on-site,” Mark Wooters, a Cushman & Wakefield executive director, told Commercial Observer. “Additionally, the views of the Potomac River are surprising, as well as the access to nearby restaurants and residential, which make this building a particularly attractive location.”
The six-story building features a newly renovated lobby, fitness center and spa, courtyard and parking garage.
“The Glover Park market, despite the pandemic, remains strong with great tour activity and continued interest from tenants,” John Skolnik, a director at Cushman & Wakefield, told CO. “This is a premier area with great economic value, access to great amenities and easy commutes with close proximity to downtown, Northern Virginia and Bethesda. I anticipate we will see continued strong activity in this corridor over the coming months.”
CBRE (CBRE)’s Anthony Bolino and Jhon Pacheco represented Nexstar in its lease. Gordon Nielsen and Alexander Lofft of Summit Commercial Real Estate represented CommuniKids in its lease.
