ATP is excited to highlight 2016’s first Champion of the Month, Lowe Enterprises! A newcomer to Champions, this national real estate company owns and manages four properties in Crystal City that recently enrolled in the program – 1400 Crystal Drive, Jefferson Plaza and Century Center I and II.
Century Center at Crystal City consists of two office towers totaling 560,000 square feet of office space, as well as 60,000 square feet of retail located in the ground floor promenade that connects both buildings. The properties have also undergone multi-million dollar upgrades and enhancements over the past several years with numerous plans in the works for 2016.
Lowe Enterprises has demonstrated a strong commitment to sustainable transportation and promoting commuting options to tenants. Since meeting with ATP, several additional opportunities have been identified to move the buildings up to Silver or Gold Level such as tenant events, Capital Bikeshare memberships, and bicycle facilities.
Current and planned amenities at the properties include:
This year, Lowe Enterprises has partnered with ATP to further encourage sustainable transportation options through a number of programs, including hosting a National Walking Day event at Century Center, an Earth Day event at 1400 Crystal Drive, as well as upcoming tenant roundtables and initiatives to assist relocating tenants in the buildings.
With hundreds of employees commuting to and from their properties each day, Lowe Enterprises understands the benefits of locating in such an accessible location with so many different transportation options. By providing additional resources, incentives and information to tenants, Lowe Enterprises can have a significant impact on the transportation system as well as the local community and region.
