In early 2021, the District will deliver a new Lafayette Recreation Center to expand activity and administrative space, as well as improve stormwater management. Community groups and civic organizations are further complementing these efforts by sponsoring additional projects, as with the opening of Alethia Tanner Park by the NoMa Parks Foundation in June 2020.17

Across the District, the Covid-19 pandemic has encouraged a reimagination and reallocation of the public realm to incorporate a greater number of shared uses in response to changing safety protocols and needs. For example, updated road configurations have introduced slower streets and converted parking lanes into “streateries” to increase common access to space and permit outdoor activities while promoting social distancing.18 If but a small silver lining, the current crisis has presented opportunities to pursue these and other new ways forward for our communities that we may never have realized.
