The Wharf: An Unparalleled Waterfront Experience

For developers, creating a world-class mixed-use destination that seamlessly blends luxury residences, hospitality, dining, retail and public spaces into one cohesive experience is the ultimate aspiration. At The Wharf in Washington D.C., this vision has been brilliantly realized.

From the outset, The Wharf redevelopment has raised the bar for urban waterfront living and placemaking. The first phase delivered the luxurious Pendry Washington D.C. hotel, chef-driven restaurants, vibrant promenades and piers, and expansive green spaces like the centerpiece park designed by celebrated landscape architect Michael Van Valkenburgh.

Now, The Wharf's second chapter is taking shape with the arrival of the stunning Amaris Residences. As highlighted in a recent Washington Post article, Amaris has already captured significant attention. Envisioned by the late world-renowned architect Rafael Viñoly, Amaris' curved glass exterior and striking architecture maximize views while offering a condominium experience unlike any other.

The vibrance and energy of The Wharf's surroundings give way to over 3.5 acres of tranquil park space, anchored by Van Valkenburgh's dramatic raw marble fountain. It's an invigorating yet serene environment at the water's edge, bringing together the best of urban living and natural escapes.

Every aspect has been meticulously planned, from the thoughtful integration of smart building technology to the highly desirable programming influenced by placemaking experts like DC Squared Management . Local boutiques, waterfront trails, and a diverse array of dining options complete the unmatched lifestyle experience.

For developers worldwide, The Wharf represents the pinnacle of mixed-use excellence - a benchmark for how to harmonize architecture, public spaces, residences, hospitality and amenities into one cohesive waterfront neighborhood. It's a vision that will undoubtedly inspire similar transformative projects for years to come. 

Bravo to Madison Marquette, Hoffman & Associates, and especially the team at DC Squared Management.
