Southwest D.C. developers want concert hall on the Potomac

The District could give Virginia’s Wolf Trap a run for its money if developers of the highly anticipated Southwest Waterfront project succeed in their vision of opening the city’s largest concert hall.

Monty Hoffman, the CEO of PN Hoffman, told The Washington Examiner that the development team has recruited the architect of Los Angeles’ Kodak Theatre to design a 5,000-seat music hall for the Potomac River waterfront. The size would make it larger than the DAR Constitution Hall, which is currently D.C.’s largest concert hall with a capacity of 3,702.
