  • Potomac Park
    46 MONUMENTAL CORE FRAMEWORK PLAN EDAW Enhance the Waterfront Experience POTOMAC PARK Potomac Park can be reimagined as a unique Washington destination: a prestigious location extending from the National Mall; a setting of extraordinary beauty and sweeping waterfront vistas; an opportunity for active uses and peaceful solitude; a resource with extensive acreage for multiple uses; and a shoreline that showcases environmental stewardship. Located at the edge of a dense urban center, Potomac Park should be an easily accessible place that provides opportunities for water-oriented recreation, commemoration, and celebration in a setting that preserves the scenic landscape. The park offers great potential to relieve pressure on the historic and fragile open space of the National Mall, a vulnerable resource that is increasingly overburdened with demands for large public gatherings, active sport fields, everyday recreation, and new memorials. Potomac Park and its shoreline should offer a range of activities for the enjoyment of all. Some areas should accommodate festivals, concerts, and competitive recreational activities, while other areas should be quiet and pastoral to support picnics under a tree, paddling on the river, and other leisure pastimes. The park should be connected with the region and with local neighborhoods. MONUMENTAL CORE FRAMEWORK PLAN 47 ENHANCE THE WATERFRONT EXPERIENCE POTOMAC PARK Context Potomac Park is a relatively recent addition to Ohio Drive parallels the walkway, provides vehicular Washington. In the early years of the city it was an access, and is used by bicyclists, runners, and skaters. area of tidal marshes. As upstream forests were cut The northern portion of the island includes 25 acres and agricultural activity increased, the Potomac occupied by the National Park Service’s regional River deposited greater amounts of silt around the headquarters, a park maintenance yard, offices for the developing city.

  • BUZZARD POINT Vision Framework + Design Review Guide NOVEMBER 2017
    BUZZARD POINT Vision Framework + Design Review Guide NOVEMBER 2017 BUZZARD POINT Vision Framework + Design Review Guide A New Waterfront Neighborhood The vision for Buzzard Point is to be a well-designed and well-programmed neighborhood with multiple attractions, excellent architecture, accommodating parks and public realm, and destination waterfront with greatly improved multi- modal transportation connections. This concept involves creating strong relationships to the surrounding areas and the Anacostia River, enhancing the environment and leveraging public investment in the South Capitol Street Corridor and the Soccer Stadium Project as catalysts and anchors for additional private investment. This document outlines a trio of goals which are supported with design concepts, recommendations, and implementation guidelines, as well as the partnerships necessary to make this vision and these goals a reality. It also describes the broader context, relevant planning initiatives, and regional influences. Vision Frameworks are pragmatic strategic planning efforts. Through targeted public outreach and data analysis, Vision Frameworks deliver high-level aspirations for a neighborhood and identify key implementation items and design guidelines to direct public investment and private actions. A Small Area Plan, on the other hand, is a more in-depth plan that typically includes recommendations to change future land use designations within the Comprehensive Plan. Small area plans are submitted to and adopted by the DC Council by resolution. Since land use changes were not needed for Buzzard Point, the Vision Framework approach was selected as the planning tool. During the Comprehensive Plan Second Amendment process, currently underway, key recommendations from the Buzzard Point Vision Framework + Design Review Guide will be incorporated into the Comprehensive Plan and submitted for DC Council adoption.

  • Cleaning up East Potomac Park
    Cleaning up East Potomac Park Abstract East Potomac Park is suffering from a trash problem originating from riv- er debris, fishermen, picnickers, and illegal dumping. In this project con- ducted with the National Park Service, we investigated the causes, im- pacts and approaches to the trash problem. We interviewed NPS staff, conducted a site assessment of the park, and reviewed literature on visitor behavior and waste management approaches to compare various infra- structural, informational, educational, and enforcement practices of parks in and around D.C. Based on this research, we created recommendations for the implementation of new approaches and created deliverables to supplement them: maps of proposed locations for more trash bins and fishing line containers; anti-littering signage created using the theory of planned behavior, and an education program local teachers can use to in- crease students’ awareness of the impacts of trash.

The Tidal Basin is located at latitude: 38.884593, longitude: -77.039208. The point represents the center of the Tidal Basin. It was obtained from Google Earth on January 2, 2018, and there is no restriction on its release to the public. Present Owner: National Park Service Present Occupant: National Park Service Present Use: Memorial and recreational landscape for public use Significance: The Tidal Basin and surrounding landscape are the result of an extensive Potomac River improvement project started by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in the late nineteenth century to address the sedimentary flats that had been deposited in the river from the White House to the Long Bridge. As part of a large-scale effort to improve the river’s navigability, the Army Corps of Engineers intermittently dredged the waterway after the Civil War. More comprehensive plans were also developed, such as Maj. W.J. Twining’s 1879 proposal to create flushing basins equipped with automatic gates. Water from the Potomac River would fill the basins, which would then discharge into the Washington Channel.
