Comstock Announces Expanded Footprint at Reston Station’s Commerce District

Leases with CACI International & Penn State Applied Research Laboratory total ~75k sqft.

Comstock Holding Companies, Inc. (Nasdaq: CHCI) (“Comstock” or the “Company”), a leading developer, investor, and asset manager of mixed-use and transit-oriented properties in the Washington, D.C. region, announced today that has secured two 10-year lease agreements with CACI International and The Applied Research Laboratory at Penn State in the Commerce District of Reston Station on behalf of Comstock Partners, LC, an affiliated privately-held company.

CACI International, a software development, cybersecurity, systems engineering and data analytics company, will move into a new 41,000 square foot location. The Applied Research Laboratory at Penn State (“ARL”), a specialized research unit dedicated to interdisciplinary scientific research, is relocating from their current location in the Commerce District to a new 34,560 square foot space.

The addition of these two leases supports Comstock’s strategic plan to bring 1.3 million square feet of new office space to Reston. The Company continues its transformation of the Commerce District, located adjacent to the Wiehle-Reston East station on Metro’s Silver Line, from a 1990’s era office park into a highly amenitized, mixed-use, transit-oriented development.

“We are thrilled to build out the newly designed, modernized office spaces for CACI and ARL, who are joining us in our re-development of the Commerce District at Reston Station,” said Tim Steffan, COO of Comstock. “We’re delighted they’ve expanded their footprint in our Reston Station neighborhood, and we look forward to having them move into their new spaces.”
