Allianz Real Estate today announced the acquisition of 1800 M Street in Washington, D.C. through its joint venture with Columbia Property Trust. Allianz and Columbia announced the formation of their joint venture in early July of this year.

Its setting is directly in the path of 3 Metro stations and is just blocks away from several of DC's most sought after, highly amenitized, residential neighborhoods.

It is currently 94% leased with a stable, diverse income stream and minimal near-term rollover.

"1800 M Street is an asset that epitomizes our investment program with Columbia Property Trust," said Christoph Donner, CEO of Allianz Real Estate of America. "It is a Class A, transit oriented office property situated among renowned dining, retail and entertainment venues and attractive residential neighborhoods, all within one of the global, gateway cities Allianz has confidence in."

The property incorporates three levels of below grade parking, storefronts, dual lobbies, six private tenant terraces, a roof top deck, and nine corner offices per floor.
