Hecht Company Warehouse
Hecht Company Warehouse, Art Deco warehouse in Ivy City, Washington D.C., United States.
The Hecht Company Warehouse features extensive glass block walls and a twelve-pointed star-shaped cupola that illuminates the night skyline of Ivy City.
Built in 1937 as a central storage facility for The Hecht Company department store chain, the building operated with three railroad track platforms for freight transportation.
The structure exhibits Streamline Moderne architecture with smooth lines and curved corners, representing a significant period in American commercial building design.
The warehouse has transformed into a mixed-use complex with apartments, retail spaces, and modern amenities while maintaining its original architectural elements.
