THE PROCESS

The DowntownDC BID is running a planning process to reimagine parks and open spaces in DowntownDC, known as the DowntownDC Parks Master Plan.

An essential part of drafting this vision is you – we need your feedback, thoughts, and input. Everyone who lives, works, and visits the DowntownDC area has a voice in this process.

FEBRUARY virtual meeting

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 17

Public Realm Planning

The Project Team hosted our second Parks Master Plan community meeting on February 17th, 2022, in partnership with the first community meeting for the Greater Gallery Place – Chinatown Corridor Study.

In a joint presentation, our two studies summarized the community-identified needs in the public realm, data analysis & site observations, and our strategies for infusing DowntownDC with higher quality parks and open spaces. Through a series of live polling exercises and a moderated Q+A, we asked for community feedback on proposed intervention typologies.

The recording of the public meeting can be found here, and we welcome you to watch it to learn more about our plans and process. Both studies will host additional community meetings in the spring and provide more opportunities for public input.

NOVEMBER virtual meeting

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 17

DowntownDC Parks Plan Community Meeting

The Project Team hosted our first community meeting in mid-November, offering 3 options for members of the public to engage with the project virtually, and an Open House in Franklin Park for in-person conversations about the project.

The presentation covered the vision and goals for the parks master planning exercise, existing conditions analyses, and the role parks should play in a community. Participants were asked to answer a series of live polls to help the Project Team better understand community needs, priorities, and what parks and open spaces in DowntownDC could become. A moderated Q+A followed the polling exercises where participants could ask more detailed questions or draw attention to issues not covered in the presentation.

A recording of one of the virtual meetings can be accessed here, and a summary with photos of the Open House in Franklin Park is below. We welcome you to watch the video to learn about the project background and vision for the parks and open spaces in DowntownDC! To learn more, you can also watch the recording of our second Community Meeting at the link above.
