In partnership with the District of Columbia, Hoffman-Madison Waterfront (HMW) is transforming The Wharf into a world-class neighborhood. We are working closely with our partners at the DC Department of Small and Local Business to provide opportunities for DC businesses.

HMW is also working collaboratively with the DC Department of Employment Services to assure maximum job and apprenticeship opportunities for DC residents. Residents seeking employment and apprenticeship opportunities are encouraged to visit to the DC Department of Employment Services website.
