WASHINGTON, DC-The city government here has released details about its “Great Streets” Initiative to redevelop underinvested DC parcels in corridors in such neighborhoods as Bellevue, Deanwood and Shepherd Park that are publicly or quasi-publicly owned. The Office of the Deputy Mayor for Planning & Economic Development points to sites such as the historic Howard Theatre (adjacent to 7th Street NW) and properties owned by the National Capital Revitalization Corp. and Metro as possibilities.
