Virginia and the District of Columbia Arlington Boulevard runs just over twelve miles from the National Mall in Washington, DC to Fairfax City, VA, crossing several jurisdictional lines and the Potomac River along the way.

Each essay examines a different aspect of the city: its monumentality as determined by its relationship with the nation it governs, the linear network of its plan, the 'objectness' of its principal buildings, and finally, the signifigance of nature. Their structure and the manner in which they view the city are tailored to their respective topics. Together they represent a body of work whose intent is to explore those issues which distinguish Washington. The premise for this approach is a belief that cities should be understood for what they are, not only for what they are like or what they are not.

Virginia Conservation Network, Friends of Huntley Meadows, Sierra Club, and maybe a couple others, met to consider formation of a local umbrella environmental group. This effort includes an attempt to create an even larger umbrella by including an anomalous mix of social advocacy interests. He lamented that similar previous efforts have come to little and offered no optimism for a different outcome. The group meets again January 13th, when all are asked to bring ideas and a friend. o Fairfax Delegation Legislative Listening Session Jan. 4, 2020 The Fairfax County delegation to the General Assembly will hold its annual public comment hearing before the 2020 session on Saturday, January 4 at 9 a.m. in the board room of the Fairfax County Government Center.

The CLI is an evaluated inventory of all landscapes having historical significance that are listed on or eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places, or are otherwise managed as cultural resources through a public planning process and in which the NPS has or plans to acquire any legal interest. The CLI identifies and documents each landscape’s location, size, physical development, condition, landscape characteristics, character-defining features, as well as other valuable information useful to park management. Cultural landscapes become approved CLIs when concurrence with the findings is obtained from the park superintendent and all required data fields

Dr. Wood’s lecture featured a thorough discussion of the Accotink Creek TMDL. Sandy and Dave presented the perspective of how the TMDL may be working or not working. Will Isenberg of DEA also gave a good talk on his agency and the TMDL process. Dave observed this was an experience worth repeating. Flint described how the current TMDL is the successor to an earlier TMDL attempt that ended in lawsuits. The earlier TMDL was an bid by the EPA to employ stormwater flow regulation as a means to the end of reduced sediment. This concept proved just a bit too challenging for Fairfax County and VDOT to accept. o Green Breakfast Young Conservation Leaders October 10, 2020 Nimesh, a sophomore at Thomas Jefferson H.S., summarized two studies he had completed concerning the Accotink Creek watershed: ✓ Water Quality in Accotink Creek , an examination of the effects of a stream cleanup on four separate chemical indicators ✓ Effect of Microhabitats on Insect Biodiversity , a comparison of insect species diversity in different habitat types, including in Nottoway Park.

CURRENT DATABASE This DRAFT working database includes major and many minor statues, monuments, memorials, plaques, landscapes, and gardens located on federal land in Washington, DC. Most are located on National Park Service lands and were established by separate acts of Congress. The authorization law is available upon request. The database can be mapped in GIS for spatial analysis. Many other works contribute to the capital's commemorative landscape. A Supplementary Database, found at the end of this list, includes selected works: -- Within interior courtyards of federal buildings; -- On federal land in the National Capital Region; -- Within cemeteries; -- On District of Columbia lands, private land, and land outside of embassies; -- On land belonging to universities and religious institutions -- That were authorized but never built Explanation of Database Fields: A. Lists the subject of commemoration (person, event, group, concept, etc.) and the title of the work. Alphabetized by Major Themes ("Achievement…", "America…," etc.). B. Provides address or other location information, such as building or park name. C. Descriptions of subject may include details surrounding the commemorated event or the contributions of the group or individual being commemorated. The purpose may include information about why the commemoration was established, such as a symbolic gesture or event. D. Identifies the type of land where the commemoration is located such as public, private, religious, academic; federal/local; and management agency.

  • 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.
