Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company Warehouse and Repair Facility, Art Deco industrial building in NoMa, Washington, D.C.

The Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company Warehouse and Repair Facility spans seven stories with geometric shapes and decorative elements at 1111 North Capitol Street.

Built in 1927, the facility served as a telephone overhaul shop and housed repair trucks for the C&P Telephone Company during the expansion of telecommunications.

The structure exemplifies the industrial architecture of the 1920s and represents the evolution of communication technology in the United States capital.

The building currently houses the headquarters of National Public Radio after a renovation that added a modern office tower behind the original facade.

The facility received recognition from the National Register of Historic Places in 2006 as part of the Telecommunications Resources of Washington DC submission.
