Among a number of ongoing urban waterfront redevelopment projects, The Wharf in Washington, D.C. is the largest in the U.S. and arguably the most comprehensive.

The $2.2 billion project encompasses 50 acres of water and 24 acres of upland improvements. It features three million square feet of new residential, office, hotel, retail, cultural and public space. The water side includes waterfront parks, promenades, piers, docks and three new marina facilities.
