Capital Bikeshare Station Project Narrative – ROCR Capital Bikeshare Station 2020 Rock Creek Park (ROCR), in partnership with the District Department of Transportation, proposes to install a Capital Bikeshare station on ROCR-managed property. The station will complement existing bikeshare stations throughout the District, in addition to the many station throughout the region. The Capital Bikeshare program is a regional transportation amenity for visitors and residents and has quickly become a critical form of public transportation. Continued participation in the system fulfills the goal of enhancing bicycle use the park and its administered sites. Increasing bicycle use reduces traffic congestion, fossil fuel use and air emissions, and provides an additional and affordable form of access to destinations throughout the park. The plan for the Capital Bikeshare station is as follows. (1) Rose Park, Georgetown Location: At the southeast corner of P Street NW and the ramp to the Rock Creek and Potomac Parkway. Size: 19 docks, and a terminal that measures approximately 6’ tall by 1.5’ wide. Pre-Treatment: The dock would be situated on a new 53’ long by 7’ wide concrete pad located on the southern side of P Street NW, immediately adjacent to the sidewalk; the 4” tall slab will sit atop a 4” to 6” gravel base, resulting in a limit of disturbance of 8” to 10” below finished grade. Proximity: The Bikeshare station is to be located just off the sidewalk so bikes can be docked and undocked easily without impacting pedestrians. Transit: This station is closest to the Dupont Circle and Foggy Bottom-GWU Metro Stations. Visitor Destinations: This station provides access to ROCR sites within Georgetown (e.g., Montrose Park, Dumbarton Oaks Park, Old Stone House, and Georgetown Waterfront Park) and the Rock Creek multi-use trail along the Rock Creek and Potomac Parkway, in addition to urban amenities within northwest Washington, DC. The station location was selected based on its proximity to visitor destinations, access to compatible modes of transportation such as Metro and bike paths, and connectivity to other Capital Bikeshare stations. Furthermore, the map frames at each station will have no advertisements and will be limited to public service announcements for activities within the park. 1 Map of Rose Park Capital Bikeshare Station 2 Site Photo Showing General Layout of Rose Park Capital Bikeshare Station 3 590.55 [15000] Capital Bikeshare Station Legend NPS - Rock Creek Park APE - Physical Rose Park - Intersection of P Street NW and Rock Creek & Potomac Parkway APE - Visual PEPC 83268 November 2019 ➤ ➤ N © 2018 Google 400 ft © 2018 Google ÿÿÿÿ !ÿ"ÿ#$%& '(ÿ)ÿ$&$01 (& '(ÿ'2ÿ22$%&ÿ"ÿ34 &!ÿ5 6$780$ÿ#&& '(ÿ&ÿ ÿ#&0$$&ÿ9 VWXY`YWaÿcWdefYgÿhiWdefYgpqWXY`YWrstuv`wxy Ywsÿ ÿYYWsdwsÿwÿYÿÿdtdfÿcqYudWYÿdwsÿdÿÿWYYÿ YssYYaÿwgÿdÿe& 1'&8fAH$(($$gH%AB'PhC$iÿ$%ÿiÿÿ&ÿ@TFÿ '@ÿjk0C$B$0iÿ50H!$fjÿel0H!$fm60C$B$0g(47AB'Ph 3%@ÿ %6ÿ50&'!'1$'ÿe( %6ml0&'!'1$'g(47AB'Ph 8(6ÿf'Cÿ2'0ÿf'C0ÿ$1 !Aÿÿÿ1ÿ&'!Hÿ&8&ÿ'C0ÿ'22 %$ÿ!0$Hfÿ0$P $Q$Hÿ&8 7ÿ(Hÿ%'(%C00$Hÿ (ÿÿn('ÿHP$07$ÿ$22$%&7oÿ2 (H (BA ÿ ÿYssYYÿpÿ 0%8 &$%&C0!ÿ 7&'0 ( 3ÿ22 %$ÿ'2ÿ !(( (B 7&'0 %ÿ 0$7$0P& '(ÿ22 %$ ÿF&8ÿ#&0$$&ÿ#9iÿ#C &$ÿ)Tÿpÿ978 (B&'(iÿ3ÿF AFFAGGF & 1'&8fAH$(($$gH%AB'P 4!(( (BAH%AB'P84' ÿ qWwrÿk0C$B$0iÿ50H!$fÿel0H!$fm60C$B$0g(47AB'Phÿ Ysrÿ'(Hfiÿ$%$1l$0ÿ)iÿÿS@TFÿ wrÿ$(($$iÿ 1'&8fÿs tÿe& 1'&8fAH$(($$gH%AB'Ph rÿ %6ÿ50&'!'1$'ÿe( %6ml0&'!'1$'g(47AB'Ph XiuYrÿ#$%& '(ÿ)ÿ$&$01 (& '(ÿ'2ÿ22$%&ÿ"ÿ34 &!ÿ5 6$780$ÿ#&& '(ÿ&ÿ ÿ#&0$$&ÿ9 ÿ vwxrÿ8 7ÿ$1 !ÿ'0 B (&$Hÿ20'1ÿ'C&7 H$ÿ'2ÿ&8$ÿ3ÿy'P$0(1$(&Aÿ'ÿ('&ÿ%! %6ÿ'(ÿ!

The estate is on the high ridge that forms the northern edge of Georgetown. Dumbarton Oaks Park, which was separated from the formal gardens when it was given to the National Park Service, consists of 27.04 acres designed as the "naturalistic" component of a total composition which included the mansion and the formal gardens. The park is located north of and below the mansion and the terraced formal gardens and focuses on a stream valley sometimes called "The Branch" (i.e., of Rock Creek) nearly 100' below the mansion. North of the stream the park rises again in a northerly and westerly direction toward the U.S. Naval Observatory. The primary access to the park is from R Street between the Dumbarton Oaks estate and Montrose Park along a small lane presently called Lovers' Lane. Present Owner; Dumbarton Oaks Park is a Federal park, owned and maintained by the National Park Service of the Department of the Interior. Dates of Construction: Dumbarton Oaks estate was acquired by Robert Woods Bliss and Mildred Barnes Bliss in 1920. At their request, Beatrix Jones Farrand, a well- known American landscape architect, agreed to undertake the design and oversee the maintenance of the grounds.

As such, we seek your review and comment on the proposed undertaking. Existing signage within Rock Creek Park and its administered sites is inconsistent with modem standards, having been installed incrementally over the last 20 years. Further, many areas are lacking identification and visitor wayfinding. This plan represents a sign palette or system that can be used and implemented in the future and provides a consistent and unified look. Signs being designed under this project include park identity signs, roadway signs, and trail signs. The proposed system is based on a modem Uni Guide system and standards, and is being developed by Hunt Designs, which developed the sign system for the National Mall and Memorial Parks. Please find enclosed the final sign plan and renderings for your review. Please note, the signs will not all be replaced at once. Instead, replacement and installation of new signs will occur in phases when funding is available, or when an existing sign is at the end of its useable life.

  • A History of Land, Labor and People of the Dumbarton Oaks Estate Until
    A History of the Land, Labor, and People of the Dumbarton Oaks Estate Until 1920 Cassandra Luca A.B. Candidate in English, Harvard College Class of 2021 Summer Intern June-August 2019 Luca 2 Introduction I would first like to acknowledge that this report was written on occupied lands of the Algonquin Nation. As a settler scholar who does not share the lived experiences of Native and Black communities, I have attempted to capture as accurately as possible the experiences of the Native Americans and enslaved people whose lives are chronicled in the following pages. This work is especially important because early settlers took the land and resources upon which Native Americans had relied for generations, and because the enslaved people who lived here continue to remain nameless despite their presence and livelihood on this land. This report is a review of previously-known sources of information concerning the history of the Dumbarton Oaks estate, incorporating newly-found documents which aim to present a more complete picture of the individuals on the property throughout its history. Rather than explicitly answering some questions concerning the labor or agricultural production of the estate, many of the new details provide a larger context through which to better understand the owners. This report is organized chronologically by owner, followed by a discussion section addressing the questions arising from the information presented. Before Ninian Beall’s Arrival Native Americans were part of the landscape in and around the property that is now Dumbarton Oaks for about 13,000 years, long before the arrival of British colonizers.

  • Invasive Species in the Historic Dumbarton Oaks Garden
    Invasive Species in the Historic Garden: A Field Guide to Dumbarton Oaks Dumbarton Oaks Internship Report Joan Chen Summer intern ‘18, Garden & Landscape Studies Master of Landscape Architecture ‘19, Harvard GSD August 3, 2018 This report provides a brief overview of Beatrix Farrand’s use of plant species that are currently considered “invasive” and outlines management strategies. Farrand’s Plant Book for Dumbarton Oaks, written in 1941 and published by Dumbarton Oaks in 1980, is the main text referenced by this report. The Garden Archives at Dumbarton Oaks, as well as conversations with gardeners, also shaped this study. Two case studies explore how invasive species management might be approached in a historic garden. A spreadsheet with each mention of an invasive plant in Farrand’s Plant Book and its associated management strategies is included in the Appendix, providing a working document for Garden and Grounds staff. The Appendix also contains a brief reading list with titles on garden history, the native/non-native/invasive plant debate, and various plant lists and technical references, as well as a printable pamphlet with information on the six most used invasive plants at Dumbarton Oaks. Overview When Beatrix Farrand described plant growth as invasive, the term “invasive species” had not yet come into use. Her 1941 plant book includes two uses of the word “invasive” while describing maintenance of fast-spreading plants: At the little porter’s lodge, Ivy and Wisteria are used on the building itself, but here again they must not be allowed to become so invasive that the lodge is turned into a green mound.

  • Running Routes from Yates
    Running & Hiking Routes Out of Yates (plus a few bonus routes) Many of the following routes are a kilometer one side or the other of 10K, but many can also be shortened or extended as you desire. I welcome your questions and clarifications: [email protected] (Tom Sherman, 7-7044) The convention in DC is that walkers, runners and cyclists stay to the right on paths and trails, passing on the left; make your life easier and stay to the right. Another convention in DC is for motorists to run you over, so please run with caution, without headphones, and never run in front of a driver that you have not make eye contact with. If passing someone closely on the left, especially someone elderly, it is good form to announce “on your left” even as a runner. Do not feel required to run out of the Yates Field House, for many of the runs described below may proceed through your neighborhood, in which case, join the route from there. Another great strategy is to use GUTS bus routes and Metro to take you to a destination from which you can run home. This is a great way to learn the city and to see areas otherwise too far to run through as a loop. Many additional DC trails are detailed on the DC area trail map that can be downloaded here: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/706401/Rock%20Creek%20Park%20Map.pdf Exits and Entrances to Yates To condense the route descriptions in the following pages, I will refer to the various exits and entrances to the Georgetown campus as displayed below: A: Medical Center Entrance 4 exit and entrance – turn right immediately out of Yates, circling behind Yates and following the path/road out of Georgetown University Medical Center (GUMC) entrance 4.
