The Wharf reestablished Washington, DC, as a waterfront city and destination. This remarkable, mile-long stretch along the Potomac River comes to life with restaurants, retailers, residences, and businesses—all complemented by monumental views and a vibrant culture. Each area at The Wharf has its own personality and character—from the premier destination for gourmets and discerning shoppers to the perfect place to work out or relax, there’s something for everyone.
Resting at the end of the 450-foot District Pier, this indoor/outdoor space offers guests the perfect mix of excitement, access, and exclusivity. Surrounded by water for exquisite 270-degree views of the Washington Channel, cherry blossom trees, and more, the Dockmaster Building is as intimate as it is immaculate.
