CityCenterDC
CityCenterDC is a mixed-use development consisting of two condominium buildings, two rental apartment buildings, two office buildings, a luxury hotel, and public park in downtown Washington, D.C..〔("Center of Attention." ''Downtown Update.'' June 2008. ) Accessed 2011-08-27.〕 It encompasses and covers more than five city blocks.〔Echols, Tucker. "Archstone Executive Al Neely Dies." ''Washington Business Journal.'' September 21, 2010.〕 The $950 million development〔O'Connell, Jonathan. "CityCenter Project to Commence in April." ''Washington Post.'' October 22, 2010.〕 began construction on April 4, 2011, on the site of the former Washington Convention Center—a site bounded by New York Avenue NW, 9th Street NW, H Street NW, and 11th Street NW.〔Irwin, Neil. "Seven Groups Vie for Downtown Project." ''Washington Post.'' December 12, 2002.〕
As of 2011, the development is one of the largest downtown projects in the United States,〔〔Howell, Tom. "CityCenterDC a 'Piece of the Puzzle' Downtown." ''Washington Times.'' April 5, 2011.〕 and the largest urban development on the East Coast of the United States.〔 It has been described as "a modern-day Rockefeller Center" by the ''New York Times''.〔(Pristin, Terry. "Blocks From the President, Developers Plan Big." ''New York Times.'' June 21, 2011. ) Accessed 2011-08-18.〕 ''Washington Post'' architectural critic Steven Pearlstein, writing in 2003, said the project will "reshape" downtown D.C.〔Pearlstein, Steven. "A Bad Idea For Convention Center Site." ''Washington Post.'' September 26, 2003.〕
Local officials consider the development critical to the city's economic and residential development. The D.C. deputy mayor for economic development characterized the project in 2004 as "the capstone of an effort to move the center of energy from the Mall to downtown".〔Russell, Virginia. "Former Convention Center to Be Capstone on Change." ''Roll Call''. June 2, 2004.〕 D.C. Mayor Anthony A. Williams said in 2005 it was "the crowning achievement in the rebirth of our downtown".〔"Council Approves Rebuilding Plan on Site of Old Convention Center." ''Associated Press.'' June 7, 2005.〕 In 2007, D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty called the development a "live, work and play environment unlike anywhere else in D.C."〔
