The 575 7th Street Main Tower at Terrell Place

Washington, DC

The 575 7th Street Main Tower at Terrell Place is a redevelopment of the former Hecht Company department store into Class A office space. The architecture of this building is impressive incorporating heavy cast iron gothic ornamentation in the ground floor spandrel panels and entrance canopy. Details like the tiny gargoyles with lion’s and eagle’s heads make these functional and enduring “eye candy”. Robinson Iron removed all gothic ornamentation for restoration. After cleaning, repair and refinishing they were installed on the renovated structure.
