About the firm
Shalom Baranes Associates (SBA) was founded in 1981 by Shalom Baranes, an architect who formerly practiced with Arthur Cotton Moore Associates.
The firm was picked in 2010 as the architect of record for Waterfront Station, a $140 million, two-building mixed-use complex atop the Waterfront Washington Metro station which the city fast-tracked in an effort to revitalize the southwest D.C. neighborhood. The following year, SBA was listed among Engineering News-Record's top 500 revenue-producing design firms, with $16.9 million in revenues and 100 associates.
Shalom Baranes Associates won the American Institute of Architects' Institute Honor Award for Regional and Urban Design for their design for Burnham Place, a $7 billion development of the air rights over the Amtrak and CSX railway tracks behind the Union Station railway terminal.
The firm is also the architect for two apartment buildings which are part of the $1 billion CityCenterDC development in the heart of the District of Columbia. SBA also assisted with the master plan for the development.
For 2013, the Washington Business Journal named Shalom Baranes Associates the national capital region's busiest architectural firm, with 67 projects in active development or under construction in that year (far more than the runner-up).
