1900 K Street, Modern skyscraper in downtown Washington, D.C., United States.
1900 K Street is a modern skyscraper in downtown Washington D.C. featuring 13 floors and a glass facade with steel structural elements. The building houses office spaces and sits within a major business district near key transportation connections.
The building was completed in 1996, designed by Cesar Pelli & Associates Architects in postmodern style. Its completion was part of the city's transformation during the late 20th century.
The structure reflects Washington's building height rules, which were created to keep the city's skyline consistent with its historic character and prevent it from looking like other major cities.
The building has nine elevators for efficient vertical movement between floors. Its location at a major business and transportation hub makes it accessible from different parts of the city.
The building's position at 38.902 latitude and -77.0438 longitude places it among 410 high-rise structures that form Washington's regulated skyline.
