The remodel of the office building at 425 Eye is in full force and the Paramount group recently erected the gigantic banner above along the structure's rear. I do think the slogan "Here comes the neighborhood" is a bit ridiculous for an office building. If you're going to spin it that way atleast hype the 28,000 s.f. of retail elsewhere on the banner. Overall I am pleased the blank wall has been dressed up.
Also of note on Eye Street is that DURKL apparel now has lettering in their front window. They reside in the blue & white garage at 443 Eye Street.

If they've posted this banner on the backside of the building, I'm left wondering what that says in terms of the timeline for construction of the adjacent building that is supposed to be sitting on that lot directly facing this banner. Will construction of that building not begin until 425 is completed in 2010? I'm tired of looking at these make-shift surface parking lots. They ALL need to GO AWAY! : )
The office buildings on K Street will not be built until a lead tenant is identified. It's almost impossible to speculate how long that may take...
I thought that Homeland Security (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) was moving bank into 425 Eye. Wasn't the old CAAB building DHS space?
To the previous commenter - please read this post from late 2008.
ICE melting away
