East Hartford, CT October 2006 Innovations Deserving Exploratory Analysis (IDEA) Programs Managed by the Transportation Research Board This Transit IDEA project was funded by the Transit IDEA Program, which fosters development and testing of innovative concepts and methods for advancing transit practice. The Transit IDEA Program is funded by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) as part of the Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP), a cooperative effort of the FTA, the Transportation Research Board (TRB) and the Transit Development Corporation, a nonprofit educational and research organization of the American Public Transportation Association (APTA). The Transit IDEA Program is one of four IDEA programs managed by TRB. The other IDEA programs are listed below. • NCHRP Highway IDEA Program, which focuses on advances in the design, construction, safety, and maintenance of highway systems, is part of the National Cooperative Highway Research Program. • High-Speed Rail IDEA Program, which focuses on innovative methods and technology in support of the Federal Railroad Administration’s (FRA) next-generation high-speed rail technology development program. • Safety IDEA Program, which focuses on innovative approaches for improving railroad safety and inter- city bus and truck safety. The Safety IDEA program is funded by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Ad- ministration and the FRA. Management of the four IDEA programs is coordinated to promote the development and testing of innova- tive concepts, methods, and technologies.

    GREENING AMERICA’S THE ANACOSTIA CAPITALS METRO STATION AREA Washington, D.C. Greening America’s Capitals is a project of the Partnership for Sustainable Communities between the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) to help state capitals develop an implementable vision of distinctive, environmentally friendly neighborhoods that incorporate innovative green building and green infrastructure strategies. EPA is providing this design assistance to help support sustainable communities that protect the environment, economy, and public health and to inspire state leaders to expand this work elsewhere. Greening America’s Capitals will help communities consider ways to incorporate sustainable design strategies into their planning and development to create and enhance interesting, distinctive neighborhoods that have multiple social, economic, and environmental benefits. Washington, D.C., was chosen in 2011 as one of five state capital cities to receive this assistance along with Montgomery, Alabama; Phoenix, Arizona; Jackson, Mississippi; and Lincoln, Nebraska.

    Railway and Transport Strategy Centre The Operator’s Story Appendix: Washington DC’s Story © World Bank / Imperial College London Property of the World Bank and the RTSC at Imperial College London The Operator’s Story: Notes from Washington DC Case Study Interviews March 2017 Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide a permanent record for the researchers of what was said by people interviewed for ‘The Operator’s Story’ in Washington DC. These notes are based upon meetings between 13th – 16th June 2016. This document will ultimately form an appendix to the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’ piece Although the findings have been arranged and structured by Imperial College London, they remain a collation of thoughts and statements from interviewees, and continue to be the opinions of those interviewed, rather than of Imperial College London. Prefacing the notes is a summary of Imperial College’s key findings based on comments made, which will be drawn out further in the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’. Method This content is a collation in note form of views expressed in the interviews that were conducted for this study. Comments are not attributed to specific individuals, as agreed with the interviewees and WMATA. However, in some cases it is noted that a comment was made by an individual external not employed by WMATA (‘external commentator’), where it is appropriate to draw a distinction between views expressed by WMATA themselves and those expressed about their organisation.

All Rights Reserved 3 Objective This study assesses the District of Columbia commercial office market and makes recommendations to enhance the city’s office environment for investors, owners, and tenants, and improve the recruitment and retention of office tenants. In the first section, JLL provides an overview of the District of Columbia office market, including recent historical performance, construction and leasing trends, and threats to its future performance. In the next section, we provide recommendations for city leaders to enhance the District of Columbia’s office market. Finally, we provide specific recommendations for the city’s Business Improvement Districts (BIDs) and other submarkets to accurately assess the state of the current – and future – market and take measures to strengthen it in their neighborhoods. The market assessment and report recommendations were compiled through data analysis, interviews with tenants, owners and brokers, filtered through JLL’s experience as a market expert in the District of Columbia. Abstract From 1988­2008, the District of Columbia office market was one of the strongest office markets in the country.
