Walking Tour with Washington Walks: Renewing Urban Renewal in Southwest DC

October 17 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm

Plans to reimagine L’Enfant Plaza, the little understood yet fascinating section of Southwest D.C., have been proposed for decades, yet the federal enclave’s bewildering mass of ramps, pocket parks, open spaces, and mid-century architecture seems to defy reinvention. Now the Trump administration has put buildings within L’Enfant Plaza’s 230 acres up for sale. Many are architecturally significant; some are historic landmarks.

Join this walking tour to see them and hear about what the future holds for this important site between the National Mall and the Southwest waterfront.

Led by Carolyn Crouch, Founder, Washington Walks and 30-year resident of Southwest D.C.

The event has a ticket cost of $20.
