Project Descriptions

CQ Roll Call Commercial Headquarters Media

The CQ Roll Call project garnered a Bronze award in the 20K-100K Square Foot Category and the FOX team included: Jim Allegro, AIA, IIDA, LEED AP (Principal), Jennifer Jordan, IIDA (Associate), Melanie Robins, NCIDQ, Jeremy Roither, Kelly Sigmund, NCIDQ and Andy Yeh, LEED AP (Managing Principal of Washington, DC Office). This project was also recognized previously for receiving NAIOP's Award of Excellence in 2012.

CQ Roll Call is the premier media company that connects policy professionals and opinion leaders with the information they need to understand and influence Congress. FOX's design team used the physical space to visually represent the symbiotic relationship between the government and the people, and the influence of CQ Roll Call on both. The design inspired the 420-strong multigenerational staff with its vibrant look and the FOX team took a holistic approach to the design by incorporating consistent elements on each floor to signify a unified, fully integrated organization.

The headquarters for CQ Roll Call is a welcoming, sophisticated representation of a new era for this forward-thinking media company. The classic-modern design embodies the rich tradition of the political stage fused with the progressive nature of CQ Roll Call's staff. This project is LEED CI Gold Certified.
