Washington, D.C. (September 27, 2024) – Monumental Sports Network’s (MNMT) state-of-the-art studio, production facility, and office space was honored with the “Award of Excellence – Best Interiors 25,001 to 75,000 square feet” during the National Association for Industrial and Office Parks’ (NAIOP) 22nd Annual Awards of Excellence. The best-in-class space was designed in partnership with Architecture Incorporated and opened in March of this year. 

The honor was presented during NAIOP’s Awards of Excellence Gala on September 25 at the Waldorf Astoria in Washington, D.C. The event honors outstanding achievement in real estate and is well-known as one of the most prestigious annual architectural design competitions in the national capital region. The full winner’s list can be found HERE. 

In March, Monumental Sports Network announced the opening of its brand-new multi-million-dollar home for the independent media platform, including a best-in-class production facility and broadcast studios, located adjacent to Capital One Arena at 700 6th Street, NW in downtown Washington, D.C.   

The new space, which Monumental Sports Network and Architecture Incorporated began designing in June of 2022, consolidates nearly 200 Monumental Sports & Entertainment (MSE) employees into one unique 39,000 square foot, LEED-certified headquarters, featuring a state-of-the-art broadcast network. Spanning two floors, the entire space is energized with mementos, graphics, and historical displays representing the Capitals, Wizards, Mystics, and various teams and venues comprising the MSE brand. The bold use of team and brand colors, slogans, innovative LED lighting technology, and broadcast studio capabilities invigorate the workplace, reinforcing the staff’s mission – to broaden sports and entertainment for their fans. Notably, the project entailed building a “building within a building,” including a new electric service, redundant chiller plant cooling towers, an emergency generator, and a data center with UPS, all to allow 24/7 operation with full backup capability. 

The MNMT production center is a SMPTE 2110 facility that features two top quality studios which can combine on non-conflict nights to create one single national telecast worthy experience. The main studios feature 24 cameras, 1,200 square feet of 4K quality LED monitors, and innovative robotics to help create the best possible pre- and post-game show viewing experiences for sports fans in the national capital region. The facility also includes two insert studios and five control rooms to produce multiple events simultaneously. 

In August 2022, Monumental Sports & Entertainment acquired full ownership of NBC Sports Washington from Comcast/NBC Universal. Since that acquisition, the network – which owns the local broadcast rights for the NHL’s Washington Capitals, NBA’s Washington Wizards, WNBA’s Washington Mystics, and NBA G League’s Capital City Go-Go – has undergone an extensive transformation into a state-of-the-art digitally focused media platform. 

In addition to its coverage of the Wizards, Capitals, Mystics, and Go-Go, MNMT also proudly boasts a comprehensive schedule of original programming and live men’s and women’s college basketball, college football, college volleyball, high school basketball, and esports, as well as Washington Spirit (NWSL), Old Glory DC (Major League Rugby), Washington Freedom (Major League Cricket), Hershey Bears (AHL), and Annapolis Blues (NPSL) games.
