Respect Yesterday,
Build Our Communities for the Future.
Horning has been unwavering in its belief in Washington, D.C. When many investors and business entities abandoned the city in the 1980s, Horning remained and built more than 50 percent of the new housing created in D.C. during that decade.
Backed by a more than 60-year record of success, Horning builds more than physical structures. We create vibrant homes and places where people and enterprises thrive and prosper. And we center that development around our core beliefs in community service, team and neighbor empowerment, collaboration, and integrity.

Award-Winning Developments
Tivoli Square
Washington, D.C.
Shuttered and abandoned for more than 30 years, the once grand Tivoli Theater in Columbia Heights was in near ruin in a neighborhood devastated by 1960s unrest. Then, in 1999, Joe Horning took a chance. He believed in the potential to recapture an historic landmark in a storied neighborhood. He believed in the District. And in a neighborhood lacking significant public investment since the unrest of the 1960s.
Today, Tivoli Square is a 116,000-square-foot retail, arts, and office complex that is home to GALA Hispanic Theater, Giant Food, the neighborhood’s first grocer in decades, two floors of offices, two decks of structured parking, and 40 townhome condominiums, eight of which are designated affordable. Groundbreaking and trendsetting, the Tivoli proves that developers can create economically viable projects that simultaneously serve the community.

Stanton Square
Washington, D.C.
Stanton Square is a campus composed of The Commons, 42 for-sale townhomes, and 121 affordable rental homes to provide housing and services to the underserved of Ward 8.
Built on land that Horning donated, and underwritten by a $10 million dollar grant from the Horning family, the 57,000 sf Commons at Stanton Square in D.C.’s historic Anacostia neighborhood houses Martha’s Table, Community of Hope and other non-profits. Together they provide early childhood education, nutrition programs, parental support, and emotional wellness services, as well as before- and after- school programs, for children and teens in Ward 8.
The campus also includes a recently completed housing community of 42 for-sale townhomes and 121 affordable rental apartments (Trio at Stanton Square.) The predominantly market-rate townhomes diversify the economic base in this submarket. And the multi-family community- which was funded through the support of DHCD, DCHFA, DCHA and private sources- includes 13 homes reserved as permanent supportive housing. Directly addressing the issue of homelessness, this proven solution pairs affordable housing with case management and supportive services for the most vulnerable.
