The Papermill is ideally situated across from the Georgetown Waterfront Park and the C&O Canal and within two blocks of the vibrant M Street corridor, recognized as one of the best shopping streets in the country! The building offers tenants panoramic views of the Potomac River, C&O Canal, Kennedy Center, and Rosslyn and multiple outdoor terraces for entertaining. The Papermill is classified as a Walker's Paradise according to Walk Score. Constructed in the early 1800s, The Papermill formerly housed one of the longest continuously running papermills in America, operating from 1850 until 1950. During that century, The Papermill flourished as home to the District of Columbia Paper Company, adapted to and prospered from the onset of heavy industrialization; and survived both the Civil War and two World Wars.
