Code § 9-1107.01, Washington Approval of comments on concept Metropolitan Area Transit Authority Compact design ACTION ITEM TYPE Staff Presentation PROJECT SUMMARY The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) is seeking comments on concept designs for Phase IV of the installation of exterior canopies at five Metrorail stations that are located on National Park Service (NPS) sites. The five sites are (1) Archives-Navy Memorial-Penn Quarter, (2) Arlington Cemetery (both north and south entrance locations), (3) Judiciary Square North, (4) Smithsonian (north entrance), and (5) U Street/African-American Civil War Memorial (east entrance). WMATA’s objectives for the canopy program are to comply with current building codes, improve escalator reliability, protect Metro patrons from rain, ice, and snow, and provide design excellence that reflects the dignity and elegance appropriate for an entrance to the Metrorail system of the Nation’s Capital. KEY INFORMATION • The prototype canopy design was selected in July 2001, created by Lourie & Chenowith, and approved by the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts (CFA) and the National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC). The District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia State Historic Preservation Officers determined that the prototype canopy did not result in adverse effects on historic properties. • The WMATA prototype canopy design was approved by the NCPC on December 4, 2003, for use at all exterior uncovered Metrorail entrances, with the exception of eight that the Commission requested be individually submitted and reviewed.
