              Subpart B_Urban Planning and Design Concerns

 

Sec. 910.11  Comprehensive urban planning and design.



    (a) All new development is conceived as an integral part of its 

surroundings, which include the remainder of the Development Area, the 

Mall, the Federal Triangle, and the District's downtown, and should 

support Pennsylvania Avenue's function as a bridge between the 

monumental Federal core to the south and the District's downtown to the 

north.

    (b) All development shall be planned and designed to accommodate the 

requirements and needs of historic preservation, affirmative action, 

business relocation, and other concerns which will affect the overall 

planning and design of a development.

    (c) The design of any development shall take into account the Plan's 

proposed future treatment of buildings, squares, and pedestrian spaces 

in the immediate surrounding area.

    (d) The design of any development shall be coordinated with the 

massing, architectural design, servicing, pedestrian amenities, and uses 

of nearby development as prescribed under the Plan.

    (e) Any development adjacent to F Street, NW. shall be accomplished 

in a manner that will strengthen F Street as a retail core of 

Washington, DC.

    (f) Any development along Pennsylvania Avenue shall be designed so 

as to support the transformation of the Avenue into an attractive and 

pleasant place for residents and visitors alike, offering pleasant 

places to stroll, rest, sit and talk, eat, and shop.

    (g) All development within a coordinated planning area shall, to the 

maximum extent possible, be integrated with regard to the off-street 

loading and servicing, pedestrian features.
