A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Federal Triangle Heritage Trail Assessment Study
In September 2008, the National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC) partnered with Cultural Tourism DC (CTDC), a local not-for-profit that specializes in the development of Neighborhood Heritage Trails within Washington, DC, to work together to evaluate the feasibility of developing a heritage trail for the Federal Triangle. This self-guided walking tour would highlight the art, architecture, history, commemoration, and governmental functions within the Federal Triangle, with reference to the uses of the land that predate the federal installations. The purpose of this report is to provide a preliminary look at the research, outreach, collaboration, and resources that will be necessary to design and implement a Federal Triangle heritage trail. It will be used to garner federal and local support for the project, identify potential funding sources, and inform future planning. When complete, the Federal Triangle heritage trail will satisfy a long-held desire of the federal and local governments, as well as city residents, to put on display an area of Washington that has strong local and national significance, and to better connect the National Mall to downtown Washington.
