Goals for the Nannie Helen Burroughs Corridor Study Area

Vision:

The Nannie Helen Burroughs Corridor SAP (NHBC-SAP) will provide the vision for a more vibrant corridor that includes a mix of uses including retail and housing, parks and green spaces, and stronger pedestrian and multimodal connections. Led by the DC Office of Planning, the effort is a collaborative process that provides opportunities for community input. The SAP supplements the Comprehensive Plan and will serve as a guide for future development. 

 

Project Goals:

  1. Public Realm and Urban Design Guidelines: Create guiding principles for active street environments, open spaces, and park environments that help reinvigorate the commercial corridor while improving user accessibility.  Develop strategies to improve the pedestrian experience of the corridor’s gateways, including the activation and maintenance of the significant amount of green space, while guiding density for commercial, retail, and residential uses. 

  1. Development Opportunity Analysis: Provide guidance for new mixed-use development at key nodes along the corridor, including potential for additional housing, retail, and commercial uses. The analysis will also include the potential for development from faith-based institutions along and adjacent to the corridor.
