  • The 11Th Street Bridge Park Baseline Health Assessment
    The 11th Street Bridge Park Baseline Health Assessment Presented to: Scott Kratz, 11th Street Bridge Park Director Prepared by: Mills Wallace, MPH Loretta DiPietro, PhD MPH Milken Institute School of Public Health The George Washington University Washington, DC Funded by: The Kresge Foundation A. Executive Summary Despite Washington, DC being the capital of the United States, the differences between the city’s eight geographic wards in education, income, and public resources are noteworthy. The 11th Street Bridge Park is unique in that it will link one of the more affluent regions of DC (Ward 6) to the lowest income region of the city (Ward 8). Building Bridges across the River (BBAR) at THEARC is a non-profit agency housed in Congress Heights that oversees the 11th Street Bridge Park in achieving the following primary goals: 1) build a healthy community in the neighborhoods surrounding the Bridge Park; 2) restore health to the Anacostia River; 3) enhance connection between the Ward 6 and Ward 8 communities; and 4) become an anchor for equitable and inclusive economic development in the surrounding communities. In that regard, BBAR formed three primary groups associated with the Bridge Park: 1) a Design Oversight Committee to inform a nation-wide design competition; 2) an Arts and Culture Committee to shape on-going programming; and 3) an Equitable Development Task Force to ensure nearby residents can continuously benefit from this new civic space. Each committee is comprised of local residents, business owners, government representatives, and faith communities. The Director of the 11th Street Bridge Park is Scott Kratz.
