Bon Secours Washington Redskins Training Center won top honors at the Greater Richmond Association for Commercial Real Estate’s 13th annual Commercial Real Estate Awards ceremony Wednesday night.
The $11 million facility – along with 3North Architects, general contractors Hourigan Construction and a list of others involved in the project’s development – was lauded for its on-time and on-budget delivery facing an “extremely ambitious schedule” and an “unusual multi-jurisdictional approval process.”
“In short, this project had nearly every imaginable moving part, and its broad success has provided momentum for multiple projects around the city,” the project’s nomination form read.
The award was announced Wednesday night at an event at the Country Club of Virginia. The Locks mixed-use apartment development, Ashland’s Vitamin Shoppe Distribution Center lease and the $143 million sale of MeadWestvaco’s downtown headquarters building and also took home honors from the event.
No one who worked the latter deal was in attendance to accept the award. Cushman & Wakefield | Thalhimer broker and event host Jeff Cooke quipped it was because they all retired on the commissions they drew from the sale.

This was an incredible thing to accomplish in such a short amount of time. It was a great job. Now that the smoke has cleared though what is the next step? Has the 2nd floor been leased out? Has the promoter/event planner moved in? What types of events are taking place when the Redskins are not in town? Is this thing making any money? I think it’s a great facility, but is it living up to the hype?
