First Potomac Realty Trust owns and manages 11.4 million square feet of industrial and warehouse space, with the federal government its largest tenant. As investors retreated from real estate stocks last year, shares of First Potomac took a beating, falling 45 percent from their February high by the end of 2007. The company remained profitable, however, and it completed a 45,000-square-foot addition to an office building at Crossways Commerce Center at a cost of $5.1 million.
