The Office of Planning (OP) has been working with residents,
community stakeholders and Washington, D.C., government agencies to
develop the Draft Nannie Helen Burroughs Corridor Small Area Plan
(NHBCSAP). This plan is designed to guide the Nannie Helen
Burroughs community and District agencies in implementing the
District's Comprehensive Plan.
The Nannie Helen Burroughs corridor, between Minnesota Avenue
and Division Avenue, is in the northeastern portion of Ward 7. It
serves as a primary retail corridor and is a bus thoroughfare
connecting rail transit to D.C. neighborhoods and Maryland suburbs.
The NHBCSAP study area includes some of D.C.'s oldest Black
neighborhoods, including Lincoln Heights, Hillbrook, Burrville and
Deanwood.
