To the ‘Couv, and beyond
HP has been pretty shy about talking to media in general.

Welcome to Crane Watch, our interactive map with details of every major construction project underway in the District — name, address, description, size, architect, cost (where we have it) and expected delivery.
With these first 85-odd projects, we have accounted for more than 13,000 residential units, roughly 4 million square feet of office space, more than 1,200 hotel rooms, hundreds of thousands of square feet of retail — and one proton therapy center. They are in the ground, or going vertical, right now.
Over the past decade, the Shaw neighborhood of Washington, D.C., has undergone a major transformation. The nearby 14th Street corridor saw homeless shelters transformed into condos and laundromats become restaurants. The adjacent U Street corridor followed suit, with new music venues attracting young crowds, prompting residential developers to move in to the up-and-coming neighborhood.
