Here's Why the Waterview Has It All in Rosslyn


In the rarefied air of DC's luxury high-rises, the Waterview in Rosslyn stands apart. Forget about the building's jaw-dropping observation lounge on the 31st floor where residents can enjoy panoramic views of the city, monuments and the DC skyline -- residents also have access to an unparalleled number of onsite amenities. Developers Pei Cobb Freed & Partners (the same team responsible for the modernization of the Louvre Museum in Paris) created Waterview with the objective of giving residents everything they would ever possibly need without ever having to leave the building. In addition to providing an "all-in-one-building" approach, the developers also look for desirable locations with easy access to major transportation routes, quality schools and everyday amenities such as nearby shopping centers, restaurants and parks. The Waterview is no exception -- the complex is ideally situated just a quick walk across the Key Bridge into nearby Georgetown and its many attractions.

Amenities From Pet Care to Personal Shoppers

The array of onsite amenities at Waterview range from pet care and secure garage parking to spa treatments to personalized fitness training in the state of the art fitness center or indoor pool. While you enjoy room service 24 hours a day, your dry cleaning and shoes are being cleaned, shined, and returned within 24 hours. Need tickets to the next Capitals game as well as a new blazer in which to dazzle clients? The Waterview's concierge services not only can procure the tickets as well as transport you and friends, clients and family to the game, they can also connect you with personal shoppers at select retail locations to assure you look your best. And, while you enjoy the game your car is being meticulously polished and detailed for return the next day. The 24-hour concierge is on hand to provide residents with any type of assistance they may need.

The exteriors of the Waterview are imposing, comprising two crescent-shaped towers that rise 300 feet -- twice the height permitted in the District. The towers are adjacent to Hotel Palomar, a luxury hotel within the Kimpton family. Hotel residences are located on floors 15 and under while levels 16-31 are reserved for residents of the 134 Waterview homes, including penthouse living on the top floor. Residents enter through a private, elegantly appointed entrance that is separate from the hotel lobby. Many of the Waterview's top-flight amenities are services the hotel provides and extend to conference rooms and business services for special events.

A Design for All Lifestyle Needs

With one, two, and three-bedroom floor plans there is a design for everyone's lifestyle needs, including pets. Indeed, the pet-friendly Waterview bylaws allow for two pets per unit, weighing 80 lbs total, the better to take advantage of those onsite pet grooming services. The floor-to-ceiling windows that dominate the interiors of each Waterview home offer stunning views to Fido and owners. With these views, do you really need furniture? All units feature the latest in home technology and lighting as well as closet systems customized to the needs of each homeowner. Kitchens are spacious with granite counters, oversize cabinetry and top of the line Sub-Zero stainless steel refrigerators and Viking appliances.

Bathrooms are equally lavish with marble and natural stone materials, towel warmers, and designer fixtures. Select homes have deep-soaking tubs and frameless glass showers while all bathrooms are designed with eco-friendly, sustainable materials.

With Georgetown nearby and a host of pampering services just steps away, residents of the Waterview enjoy living in a building that commands a strong, waterfront presence overlooking the nation's capital.
