Moving Forward at Park Morton

Please join us for a public presentation by the Park Morton development team of the master plan update that addresses the goals of the New Communities Initiative and responds to community feedback from the community planning and design workshops held in December 2015.

BACKGROUND: Park Morton, a 174-unit public housing community along the Georgia Avenue corridor, is slated for redevelopment into a new, mixed-income and mixed-use development as part of the District’s New Communities Initiative. The city has proposed using part of the former Bruce Monroe school site (along Georgia Avenue, between Irving and Columbia), to replace some of the existing units at Park Morton in a mixed-income setting, minimizing the displacement of Park Morton residents during redevelopment. There are also opportunities to preserve and improve park/green space at both sites, and add retail and community amenities.
