INDIANA AVENUE WASHINGTON, DC

 

Under the direction of the Pennsylvania Avenue Development Corporation, LAPIERRE STUDIO provided urban design and streetscape master planning services for several property owners along Indiana Avenue in Washington, D.C., a historic downtown mixed-use block which includes the last remaining original 19th c. retail block within the Pennsylvania Avenue Corridor. The block was redeveloped in coordination with other adjacent mixed-use and residential development, thus establishing a new downtown neighborhood known as Pennsylvania Quarter. Improvements included substantial roadway reconstruction/alignment, new streetscape trees, furnishings, plazas and terraces, including retention of historic monuments and pavings, and provisions for ADA accessibility to all spaces.
