District Wharf (Phase 2)
Phase II of the District Wharf waterfront development involves the creative planning and design of the open space to complete the final phase of this mile long stretch along the Washington Channel. This includes designing the Grove plaza along the waterfront promenade and Events Garden. Situated between retail, bars, and restaurants, all over structure, the Grove Plaza brings tree canopy to the urban center offering shade and a place to meet and gather under the shade of American Elms.
Marina Way, a two block retail street, Maine Avenue, and the connective mews between buildings are designed with the pedestrian experience in mind, using contiguous paving to make space more easily shared by cars and people while the reconnecting visitors and residents to the vital ecological margin of the Potomac River waterfront.
