  • Restore Mass Ave Tree Plaza Press Release
    Re-greening Embassy Row restoremassave.org RESTORE MASS AVE PROPOSES TREE PLAZA BY PNC BANK ON DUPONT CIRCLE Nonprofit unveils plan for shaded space at city’s most popular Capital Bikeshare station EMBARGOED until November 20, 9 am 2015 | Download pdf RMA Contact: Carole Feld [email protected] | 202-415-2669 | More at restoremassave.org/dupont-tree-plaza/ WASHINGTON DC (November 20, 2015) Today Restore Mass Ave (RMA), a nonprofit working to restore the historic tree canopy and landscape of Embassy Row, released its Tree Plaza Concept Plan. The plan envisions how the barren city sidewalk on Massachusetts Avenue by the PNC Bank Dupont Circle branch can be planted with nine new shade trees. Now the 7,100-square-foot sidewalk area at 1913 Massachusetts Avenue NW, in the heart of the Dupont Circle neighborhood, encompasses a bank entrance and ATM, a future entrance of the Dupont Underground, the city’s busiest Capital Bikeshare station — and just two struggling trees. LEFT: Proposed Tree Plaza looking east. RMA sign is at far left. Leo A Daly/Restore Mass Ave RMA has been planting and arranging care for trees west from 20th Street along Massachusetts Avenue NW to Wisconsin Avenue NW since 2006. To complete its re-greening of Embassy Row, the group now proposes that the current heat island by the bank be transformed into a shaded, inviting community space. The pervious area would quadruple from 4 to 16 percent thanks to the additional tree boxes and the enlarged lawn near the bank’s parking lot. The plaza area and proposed new tree sites are entirely on city land.

  • 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.
