A prominently sited building in Dupont Circle has been pitched for residential conversion.

Plans have been filed with DC’s Historic Preservation Office (HPO) to convert the building at 1625 Massachusetts Avenue NW (map) into a 157-unit apartment building. The building is owned by National Real Estate Advisors and Eric Colbert and Associates is in charge of the design of the conversion.

The stone exterior and 90-foot volume of the building would not change as the interior is reworked for residential units. Developed in 1972, 1625 Massachusetts Avenue is located at the northeast corner of Massachusetts Avenue and 17th Street NW. The building was renovated and redeveloped for continued office use in 1995.

Here are some other office-to-residential conversions on the boards for DC:
