Excerpt:

•A long list of industrial and low-density residential sites all around the city, as well as a handful of former schools and metro stations like Congress Heights, were rezoned for higher-density residential and commercial uses, paving the way for more retail and housing.


•High-density development is encouraged in Poplar Point. “Provide a scale and pattern of development in Poplar Point that recognizes the area’s proximity to a Metrorail station and other major surface arterials and that the area is physically separated from surrounding neighborhoods and may therefore accommodate buildings and site plans unlike but is compatible with the fine-grained pattern found in nearby Historic Anacostia.”
