The construction crew is installing reinforcements inside 1724 Kalorama Rd NW to make it even stronger.

While construction at 1724 Kalorama Rd NW is underway, we are building the programming that will soon bring Sitar Next Door to life. Our ArtsAdvance workforce development program is in its pilot phase. Apprentices are training in graphic design, web design, and UX design from September through May.

The foundation work at 1724 Kalorama Rd NW continues! This demolition and groundwork lays the foundation of resurrecting a building that had laid empty for nearly a decade.

The final beams are coming down to remove the roof and the pipe is laid which will become the electrical room in the new facility – powering Sitar Next Door.

On May 16, the construction team removes the current roof to make space to add two new floors to 1724 Kalorama Rd NW.

On April 12, the first of 8 enlarged columns was completed in Sitar Next Door

After years of laying untouched, 1724 Kalorama Rd NW is in the final phase of demolition, on its way to becoming Sitar Next Door.

Construction has begun on Sitar Next Door – Sitar's brand-new facility anchoring the ground floor of a new deeply affordable housing building.
