2024 has been an incredible year for Rappaport as we celebrate our 40th Anniversary and continue to meet exciting milestones and deliver outstanding service to our clients. We had the privilege of taking over leasing and management for prime properties including Germantown Commons, Spring Valley Village, Loudoun Crossroads, and Tysons West Phase III. We welcomed Burlington, Dominique Dawes Gymnastics Academy, Dessert 39, and more to our tenant advisory service, signed deals with major anchor tenants, opened new restaurants in the District, and so much more.
