Carmel Partners, a San Francisco-based company, has secured a $360 million construction loan for the redevelopment project of the old Washington Marriott Wardman Park Hotel in Washington, D.C. The hotel, which has been closed since 2020, will be replaced by two residential structures. The loan has been provided by Wells Fargo, although the lender has not yet given any comment on the matter.

In 1913, the hotel opened as the Wardman Hotel, later becoming the Marriott. Unfortunately, it permanently closed in 2020 due to financial difficulties caused by the pandemic.

History on the Washington Marriott Wardman Park Hotel Redevelopment

The hotel initially thrived due to the housing crisis caused by the expansion of Washington, D.C. during World War I. It quickly gained popularity and attracted influential guests, including foreign diplomats, members of Congress, and Vice President Marshall.

On January 11, 2021, the hotel’s owner, Pacific Life subsidiary Wardman Hotel Owner LLC, filed for bankruptcy, triggering the permanent closure of the hotel and the termination of its management contract with Marriott. Carmel Partners acquired the property for $152.2 million in a bankruptcy auction held in July 2022. At the time, the company announced plans to develop a 900-unit, two-tower multifamily building on the site. The renovation plans were approved by the Historic Preservation Review Board in April 2022.

Originally, the development was planned to occupy less than 3 acres of land. However, public documents revealed that it would cover over 5 acres, and this expansion was later approved. According to the papers filed with the Historic Preservation Review Board, Carmel Properties intends to demolish the existing hotel and construct two 90-foot multifamily structures surrounding a central courtyard, complete with 2 acres of green space.
