  • Village in the City Historic Markers Lead You To: Mount Pleasant Heritage Trail – a Pre-Civil War Country Estate
    On this self-guided walking tour of Mount Pleasant, Village in the City historic markers lead you to: MOUNT PLEASANT HERITAGE TRAIL – A pre-Civil War country estate. – Homes of musicians Jimmy Dean, Bo Diddley and Charlie Waller. – Senators pitcher Walter Johnson's elegant apartment house. – The church where civil rights activist H. Rap Brown spoke in 1967. – Mount Pleasant's first bodega. – Graceful mansions. – The first African American church on 16th Street. – The path President Teddy Roosevelt took to skinny-dip in Rock Creek Park. Originally a bucolic country village, Mount Pleasant has been a fashion- able streetcar suburb, working-class and immigrant neighborhood, Latino barrio, and hub of arts and activism. Follow this trail to discover the traces left by each succeeding generation and how they add up to an urban place that still feels like a village. Welcome. Visitors to Washington, DC flock to the National Mall, where grand monuments symbolize the nation’s highest ideals. This self-guided walking tour is the seventh in a series that invites you to discover what lies beyond the monuments: Washington’s historic neighborhoods. Founded just after the Civil War, bucolic Mount Pleasant village was home to some of the city’s movers and shakers. Then, as the city grew around it, the village evolved by turn into a fashionable streetcar suburb, a working-class neigh- borhood, a haven for immigrants fleeing political turmoil, a sometimes gritty inner-city area, and the heart of DC’s Latino community.

  • Restore Mass Ave Tree Plaza Press Release
    Re-greening Embassy Row restoremassave.org RESTORE MASS AVE PROPOSES TREE PLAZA BY PNC BANK ON DUPONT CIRCLE Nonprofit unveils plan for shaded space at city’s most popular Capital Bikeshare station EMBARGOED until November 20, 9 am 2015 | Download pdf RMA Contact: Carole Feld [email protected] | 202-415-2669 | More at restoremassave.org/dupont-tree-plaza/ WASHINGTON DC (November 20, 2015) Today Restore Mass Ave (RMA), a nonprofit working to restore the historic tree canopy and landscape of Embassy Row, released its Tree Plaza Concept Plan. The plan envisions how the barren city sidewalk on Massachusetts Avenue by the PNC Bank Dupont Circle branch can be planted with nine new shade trees. Now the 7,100-square-foot sidewalk area at 1913 Massachusetts Avenue NW, in the heart of the Dupont Circle neighborhood, encompasses a bank entrance and ATM, a future entrance of the Dupont Underground, the city’s busiest Capital Bikeshare station — and just two struggling trees. LEFT: Proposed Tree Plaza looking east. RMA sign is at far left. Leo A Daly/Restore Mass Ave RMA has been planting and arranging care for trees west from 20th Street along Massachusetts Avenue NW to Wisconsin Avenue NW since 2006. To complete its re-greening of Embassy Row, the group now proposes that the current heat island by the bank be transformed into a shaded, inviting community space. The pervious area would quadruple from 4 to 16 percent thanks to the additional tree boxes and the enlarged lawn near the bank’s parking lot. The plaza area and proposed new tree sites are entirely on city land.
