Project description: This 2.5-acre site was occupied by two of Washington, D.C.'s historic buildings: The Uline Arena building, home to the first live Beatles performance in the United States in 1964, and the Icehouse Building, a significant masonry building originally used to create the ice for skating and ice hockey events at the Uline Arena.

This new mixed-use redevelopment, known as Uline Arena, has over 70,000 SF of retail space, 180,000 SF of office space, andmore than 167 parking spaces on a new above-ground parking structure. It features a new interior courtyard, designed to provide abundant natural sunlight for the office space and to create a calming urban respite for office employees.

The Coliseum revitalized this culturally and architecturally significant site and infilled the existing neighborhood streetscape with exciting, lively urban activity.
