CP Group, a prominent owner-operator of office properties throughout the Sunbelt, along with a fund managed by DRA Advisors, announced that it has executed over 32,000 square feet of leasing activity over the past six months at CapRock, the 709,313-square-foot Class-A office property in Bethesda, Md. Formerly known as Democracy Center, the three-building, 10-acre campus comprises two nine-story towers and one 15-story tower.
CP Group recently completed a multi-million-dollar repositioning to return CapRock to its heyday as a burgeoning and modern workplace destination following its 2023 rebrand. The renovations included a full transformation of the main building at 6903 Rockledge Drive, including a new two-story lobby, improvements to the entrance and grand arrival, a modernized fitness center, and a second-floor tenant lounge with a multi-room and multi-purpose conference center, an outdoor balcony, huddle and collaborative space, and a coffee bar.
The recent deals include new arrivals, renewals, and an expansion:
Bernie McCarthy, Amanda Davis, Danny Sheridan, and Patrick Hall of JLL represented the landlord in all transactions.
“We’ve made significant investments in an elevated tenant experience at CapRock. From the redesigned lobby and amenity spaces to our successful spec suite program, the results speak for themselves,” said Josh Edwards, Senior Vice President at CP Group. “Industry leaders today want space that reflects their brand and engages their teams. By focusing our capital improvements on design, flexibility and placemaking, we’ve succeeded in attracting both emerging firms and established organizations looking for long-term value in the DMV market.”
CP Group’s renovations at CapRock’s 6903 building included the rollout of its “worCPlaces” spec suite program, delivering an entire seventh floor of move-in-ready workspaces complete with shared amenity space, including a tenant lounge and breakroom that are now fully leased. Due to demand, a second floor of spec suites is underway, two of which are preleased, is scheduled to deliver this month.
CapRock features additional onsite amenities, including outdoor plazas, a café with outdoor seating, and on-site daycare. Conveniently located at the intersection of I-495 and I-270, the campus also provides direct access to Downtown Bethesda, Washington, D.C., and more than 30 dining options within a one-mile radius.
