The D.C. Council⁠ approved up to $275 million in bond financing for a California developer to convert a Penn Quarter office building into a 415-unit apartment building with a Sprouts location on the ground floor.

The bonds will go to the nonprofit Madrone Community Development Foundation to help with the acquisition, demolition, renovation or the building and tenant improvement work for the 25,000-square-foot Sprouts store. Madrone is expected to repay the financing provided by the District, reported the Washington Business Journal.

$44 million of the bond financing will go toward acquisition costs, $13 million toward demolition, $81 million toward renovation, and $6 million toward improvement work for Sprouts. The building at 600 E St. NW is currently owned by S.C. Herman & Associates Inc. The 1970s-era office building was once home to the Department of Justice, a longtime anchor tenant. The federal agency moved out, shedding more than 1 million square feet across four buildings and relocating nearly 840,000 square feet to Three and Four Constitution Square.
