I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

1. 2200PA_100904_007.JPG: DC -- 2200 Pennsylvania Avenue
2. 2200PA_100904_505.JPG: I was surprised the outlets were ground-down -- most of the current building codes require the ground be on top.
Description of Subject Matter: Situated in the western portion of downtown Washington, D.C.s Central Business District, 2200 Pennsylvania Avenues location offers quick, easy access to all parts of the city and close-in suburbs. The site is located directly between Georgetown and the Central Business District, adding an abundance of amenities to a neighborhood already filled with luxury hotels, upscale shops and restaurants, and high-end residences.
The 10-story Class A office building boasts a soaring three-story, glass-enclosed lobby, 50,000 sf floorplates, a state-of-the-art fitness center, a beautifully landscaped interior courtyard, 5 levels of below-grade parking and a large rooftop terrace.
Part of an impressive 850,000 sf Square 54 development, 2200 Pennsylvania Avenue will share the site with a new, 333-unit luxury apartment building and another 50,000 sf of select high-end retail, including an urban grocery store.

2200 Pennsylvania Ave Washington, D.C.
PROJECT COST: $95 million
Rising from the former George Washington University Hospital site in the District of Columbia, Square 54 at 2200 Pennsylvania Avenue, promises to be a world-class, mixed-use town center.
Clark Foundations of Bethesda, Md., began the project in spring 2008 and completed a $4-million sheeting and shoring contract. Its excavation work included drilling soldier beams around the perimeter of the site.
Clark Construction Group of Bethesda began building the $95-million, 972,000-sq-ft office building and garage in January, with completion scheduled for March 2011.
A spread-footer foundation supports the concrete structure, which will be clad in a glass and aluminum curtain-wall system.
Ultimately, the project will include the office space and 84,000 sq ft of retail space. It will include a full-service grocery store, pedestrian plaza and 333 rental units.
Property owner George Washington University considers the project a “key source of nonenrollment-driven revenue to fund the core academic mission of the university.”
Boston Properties of Boston is developing the 2.6-acre, transit-oriented project, located adjacent to the Foggy Bottom-GWU Metro.
Key Players:
Developer: Boston Properties, Boston
Contractor: Clark Construction Group, Bethesda, Md.
Design Architect: Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects, New Haven, Conn.
Executive Architect: Hickok Cole Architects, Washington, D.C.
