Recent years have brought significant changes to the neighborhood of Southwest Washington, and more change is on the horizon.  Tarek Bolden from the Office of Planning will explain the role of “Small Area Plans” in directing the development of a community, separating conservation areas from those appropriate for greater redevelopment, while Steve Cochran, also from Planning, will talk about how zoning and other land use tools can be used to shape a community.  State Historic Preservation Officer, David Maloney, will discuss how redevelopment can take place in a manner that is respectful to existing character, highlighting the lessons learned from Potomac Place, and  Todd Ray from Studio 27 will share his firm’s vision for the neighborhood.  Architect and local resident, Eric Jenkins will join the speakers to conclude the evening with a panel discussion of the issues raised.
