opportunity for neighborhood revitalization and green space expansion. This parcel is not
suitable for residential or commercial development; stakeholders have long requested that the
District acquire the property and convert it into a publicly accessible neighborhood park.
                (2) The Dupont Park neighborhood is a residential neighborhood characterized by
nearby green space and hundreds of acres of forested trails for hiking, nature walks, biking, and
outdoor community events. The neighborhood offers access to outdoor recreation and reflects a
park-like setting that complements Fort Dupont Park, which is situated to the north of the Dupont
Park neighborhood.
                (3) Lots 5542S-0030, 5542S-0031, and 5542S-0043 (the “Property”), located
within the Dupont Park neighborhood at approximately 3210 and 3212 O Street, SE, is
approximately 14,340 square feet. The Property currently consists of green space that sits
beneath the O Street Wall, a retaining wall that has been enhanced, repaired, and restabilized in
the past.
                (4) Development of the Property is a high-priority measure for the District and
residents of Ward 7. Dupont Park residents have expressed concerns with the Property because
of the need to improve environmental sustainability and stormwater management, increase
recreational opportunities for children and families, and support long-term property stabilization
and quality of life improvements long sought by neighbors in this area.
                (5) The Property presents an opportunity for redevelopment and a reduction in
blight in the Dupont Park neighborhood. The Property is appropriate for neighborhood
development, including a community park and walking trail, accessible green space, enhancing
neighborhood connectivity, and providing residents with a safe location for recreational and
outdoor activities.
                (6) Acquisition of the Property by the District and subsequent operation of the
Property by the Department of Parks and Recreation (the “Department”) will allow an
opportunity for the Department to invigorate an unused and blighted parcel and to reposition the
Property for revitalization as a safe community space for residents.
