    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.
