Transportation
Chevy Chase Lake Sector Plan Appendix 7 Transportation 1 Sector Plan Study Area and Plan Boundary The transportation analysis for the Chevy Chase Sector Plan takes into account a larger study area and a smaller Plan boundary (see Figure 1). The study area comprises the traffic analysis zones (TAZs) within and contiguous to the Plan boundary. The definition of the study area is important as the first step in establishing the interface between the regional transportation model (Travel/3) and the Plan‐specific local area model (LAM). The Plan boundary is formally established by the Planning Board during its deliberations on the Plan’s Scope of Work. The more detailed transportation analysis (using the LAM and other analysis tools) is conducted on the area within the Plan boundary. Figure 1 Sector Plan Study Area and Plan Boundary The smaller Plan area is further divided into sub‐zones (see Figure 2). During consideration of the scope of work for the Chevy Chase Lake Sector Plan, the Planning Board agreed that two intersections (Connecticut Avenue/Beach Drive and Connecticut Avenue/Bradley Lane) would be included in the LAM analysis even though they were outside the Plan boundary. 2 Figure 2 Plan Area Sub‐zones 3 Major Transportation Facilities Connecticut Avenue (MD 185) is the major roadway serving the Plan area. Table 1 summarizes the Plan area’s master‐planned streets and highways. In addition to the roadways, the master‐ planned Purple Line Transitway and adjacent Capital Crescent Trail are located within the Georgetown Branch right of way and extend across the sector plan area. -
H. H. Richardson's House for Reverend Browne, Rediscovered
H. H. Richardson’s House for Reverend Browne, Rediscovered mark wright Wright & Robinson Architects Glen Ridge, New Jersey n 1882 Henry Hobson Richardson completed a mod- flowering, brief maturity, and dissemination as a new Amer- est shingled cottage in the town of Marion, overlook- ican vernacular. To abbreviate Scully’s formulation, the Iing Sippican Harbor on the southern coast of Shingle Style was a fusion of imported strains of the Eng- Massachusetts (Figure 1). Even though he had only seen it lish Queen Anne and Old English movements with a con- in a sadly diminished, altered state and shrouded in vines, in current revival of interest in the seventeenth-century 1936 historian Henry-Russell Hitchcock would neverthe- colonial building tradition in wood shingles, a tradition that less proclaim, on the walls of the Museum of Modern Art survived at that time in humble construction up and down (MoMA) in New York, that the structure was “perhaps the the New England seaboard. The Queen Anne and Old most successful house ever inspired by the Colonial vernac- English were both characterized by picturesque massing, ular.”1 The alterations made shortly after the death of its the elision of the distinction between roof and wall through first owner in 1901 obscured the exceptional qualities that the use of terra-cotta “Kent tile” shingles on both, the lib- marked the house as one of Richardson’s most thoughtful eral use of glass, and dynamic planning that engaged func- works; they also caused it to be misunderstood—in some tionally complex houses with their landscapes. -

Dc Homeowners' Property Taxes Remain Lowest in The
An Affiliate of the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities 820 First Street NE, Suite 460 Washington, DC 20002 (202) 408-1080 Fax (202) 408-8173 www.dcfpi.org February 27, 2009 DC HOMEOWNERS’ PROPERTY TAXES REMAIN LOWEST IN THE REGION By Katie Kerstetter This week, District homeowners will receive their assessments for 2010 and their property tax bills for 2009. The new assessments are expected to decline modestly, after increasing significantly over the past several years. The new assessments won’t impact homeowners’ tax bills until next year, because this year’s bills are based on last year’s assessments. Yet even though 2009’s tax bills are based on a period when average assessments were rising, this analysis shows that property tax bills have decreased or risen only moderately for many homeowners in recent years. DC homeowners continue to enjoy the lowest average property tax bills in the region, largely due to property tax relief policies implemented in recent years. These policies include a Homestead Deduction1 increase from $30,000 to $67,500; a 10 percent cap on annual increases in taxable assessments; and an 11-cent property tax rate cut. The District also adopted a “calculated rate” provision that decreases the tax rate if property tax collections reach a certain target. As a result of these measures, most DC homeowners have seen their tax bills fall — or increase only modestly — over the past four years. In 2008, DC homeowners paid lower property taxes on average than homeowners in surrounding counties. Among homes with an average sales price of $500,000, DC homeowners paid an average tax of $2,725, compared to $3,504 in Montgomery County, $4,752 in PG County, and over $4,400 in Arlington and Fairfax counties. -
