Make Room For PNC

Site demolition is well underway at the site for the new PNC Regional Head Quarters at 17th and H Street right by the White House. We just love this type of demo where they basically take big bites out of a building till it falls down, it’s just fun to watch.
With the site getting ready for the new construction, we’re starting to get excited about the three-story climate wall that will cool the new buildings lobby with flowing water, we can’t wait to see what that looks like!
