Fannie Mae plans to sells it gigantic Northwest D.C. headquarters.

As the Wall Street Journal reports, the company plans to consolidate its area operations into one downtown D.C. building. That means the Colonial-style building at 3900 Wisconsin Avenue NW, as well as buildings at 4250 Connecticut Avenue and 3939 Wisconsin Avenue, will be up for grabs in the next two to three years.

The building, which looks like something you’d expect to see on a walking tour of Philadelphia or Williamsburg, was designed in 1956 by D.C. native Leon Chatelain, Jr. It originally served as headquarters for the Equitable Life Insurance Co. According to the American Institute of Architects, of which he was once president, Chatelain also designed Georgetown University’s McDonough Gymnasium and Washington Gas’ downtown headquarters.

Oakley Hunter, Fannie Mae’s president when the building was purchased in the 1970s, considered it his “Taj Mahal.”
