Park View UNC Monthly Community Meeting – October 2018 – What do you want to see in the neighborhood?

October 3, 2018 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Please join the Park View United Neighborhood Coalition for our monthly meeting on Wednesday!

This month: What do you want to see in the neighborhood – for our shared public spaces and along the Georgia Avenue business corridor?

Join a community conversation about how our neighborhood’s public spaces get used – and how they should be designed – and about how to support development along Georgia Avenue that meets the needs of neighborhood residents.

When: Wednesday, Oct. 3, 7-8pm
Where: Park View Rec Center, on the corner of Warder St. and Otis Pl. NW
Who: Kent Boese, Chair of ANC1A and head of the ANC’s Parks and Public Space Committee, and Jennifer Kuiper, Neighborhood Director of the Lower Georgia Avenue Main Streets Program.

More:
Jennifer will be sharing the results of a survey that many Park View residents took over the summer on amenities we’d like to see on Georgia Ave and will discuss other opportunities for community involvement in the Lower Georgia Ave Main Street program, which provides direct technical assistance to local businesses to help them thrive and plans local events and promotions that draw people to the neighborhood, create volunteer opportunities, and connect neighbors.

Kent will get us up to speed on the work of the ANC1A Parks and Public Space committee, which is looking at all efforts and projects that deal with public space within our ANC so that we can take a holistic approach to community needs across the northeast corner of Ward 1. We have a lot of efforts currently that touch upon parks and public spaces, from planned updates to Park View Recreation Center and new parks as part of Park Morton to renovations to Powell Park on 16th Street, efforts to save the dog park at 11th and Park, and managing the Columbia Heights Civic Plaza. How can we ensure that these spaces meet a variety of community needs?
