Gary Cohen is a third generation
Washington
developer. Cohen’s grandfather, William “Bill” Cohen founded Willco
Investments in the early 60’s, as a vehicle to purchase real estate
in the Washington Metro area. His first purchase was a vacant
piece of ground on the corner of 20th and L Street NW, which he
developed into an office building called The Vanguard, and leased it
to the government. By the 1970’s, properties held by Willco
Investments included retail, commercial and industrial space,
including hotels and shopping
centers.
Cohen’s father, Richard S. Cohen, entered the business at a very
young age and was immediately drawn toward construction. In the
70’s, Richard founded Willco Construction and became one of the
largest |

 |
general contractors in the area. Willco Companies, the
successor of Willco Construction, currently develops and manages
more than 6 million square feet of office, retail and industrial
space. After spending 8 years at Willco Companies,
Gary founded Willco Residential. As his father has done so
successfully, Gary continues to expand the reputable Willco name. Through this entity, Gary proudly
carries on his family tradition of enhancing the local real estate
market as he develops residential properties.
