Benning Road NE Streetscape A Working Vision for Downtown Ward 7 The Kenilworth Avenue Corridor Study The DC Alternatives Analysis The redesign of the Starburst intersection Most private sector development in the corridor is focused along H Street NE, especially near the Hopscotch Bridge. In the Ward 7 Downtown Area, the Minnesota-Benning Government Center (refer to the Minnesota Avenue Report) and the Parkside mixeduse development will re-shape the area significantly, bringing new jobs and patrons to the areas retail facilities. H Street-West Benning Road: This part of the corridor is currently characterized by underutilized
retail storefronts and vacant lots. However, the quality of these uses does not reflect the future market potential of this corridor as it is directly in the path of growth from several directions, particularly from the demand for improved retail and services originating from neighborhoods to the south and north, Class A office development around Union Station, and increased residential pressures heading east from the East End. Along the length of the corridor market conditions vary, and development will tend to occur within relatively distinct cores, or Investment Areas. A description of these Investment Areas is as follows: Union Station: The area from North Capitol to nd Street NE will be transformed into a high-density, mixeduse core over the near- and mid-terms consisting of:
H Street West: This area stretches from 3rd Street NE to 0th Street NE and is envisioned as a walkable, one-half mile long urban main street, with a mixture of residential uses, street-front retail, and local-serving offices. Approximately 50 residential units are under development in this corridor, representing a fraction of the likely demand over the mid- and near-terms The residential development on this corridor and in the surrounding neighborhoods will support, and be attracted by, revitalized existing retail comprised of restaurants, boutique and brand retailers, and entertainment uses. H Street East: This area stretches from 0th Street NE to the Starburst intersection. The Starburst intersection may be the location of new and/or improved conventional, neighborhoodserving retail and larger, community-serving box retail anchors.
Existing Context
A
Bustling regional center of major transportation modes, Downtown-East End employment, and thriving national retailers/restaurants with H Street addresses. Architecturally distinctive, 4-to-8 story residential buildings within a mixedincome, walkable, transit-oriented community easily accessible to quality goods, services, and work opportunities. Inviting and unique neighborhood goods and services in a mix Eclectic restaurants, cafes, bookstores, galleries, artist workshops, of successfully preserved existing buildings and sensitively boutiques, live music, etc. centered around the successful H Street infilled new development. Playhouse and the Atlas Performing Arts Center. Vibrant mixed-income residential and regional retail development beyond more pedestrian-friendly crossings at the spider streets.
B-8
The area between the Starburst intersection and 0th Street NE will see infill residential development, with retail playing a local-serving complimentary function. The presence of larger-scale retail options will anchor the urban main street retail experience. Benning Road West: This area between 7th Street NE and st Street NE is characterized by poor-quality, local-serving retail; large industrial and underutilized sites; and income-constrained neighborhoods. This area will eventually be an attractive location for infill residential and complimentary neighborhood-serving redevelopment, but will see limited development in the near- and mid-term. East Benning: This part of the corridor is characterized by older, multifamily projects, and the surrounding neighborhoods are generally income-constrained. There are some small pockets of retail, but the quality of the retail is poor and does not adequately serve the local neighborhood.
Figure A: Minnesota Avenue NE/Benning Road NE intersection, from A Working Vision for Downtown Ward 7, MHCDO and Washington Regional Network Figure B: Potential Private Sector Investment Plan
The major constraint associated with mixed-income, residential redevelopment will be the gap between the cost of redevelopment and the prices and rents of low- and moderate-income housing. The volume of redevelopment activity in this corridor will be driven in great part by the availability of funding sources that can bridge this gap. The investment areas in this part
Southern Gateway: The southern end of the corridor has a small amount of local-serving retail and a concentration of older multifamily properties, but is generally surrounded by lower-density single-family homes. There will likely be an opportunity over time to redevelop or rehabilitate some of the multifamily housing stock and improve the quality of the small amount of existing retail in the area.

Existing Context
Given these market conditions, there will be an opportunity to rehabilitate or redevelop some of the older multifamily buildings in the corridor into new and better quality housing. This will help improve the physical appearance of the corridor and attract a wider range of household incomes into the neighborhood. In turn, this will support a higher quality of local-serving retail, which is sorely lacking in the area.
The future market-driven character of the area will be a moderate-density residential location. This will leverage access to the nearby Benning Road Metrorail station and to better-located retail cores, particularly the Benning-Minnesota intersection several blocks to the northwest. This will mean the redevelopment of a number of existing retail uses, as well as redevelopment and rehabilitation of existing multifamily buildings. A small amount of complimentary local-serving retail and office space can also be fully supported over time.
similar neighborhoods (including the Capitol Gateway HOPE VI development to the north of the corridor), have proven that, given decades of limited housing choices and affordable housing options in other parts of the region, there is a strong local and regional demand for higher quality, low- moderate, and middle-income housing in areas such as the East Benning Road Corridor.
of the corridor include the following: Benning-East Capitol Intersection: This area currently includes a mix of small-scale retail and multifamily retail of varying age and quality.
TRANSPoRTATIoN RECoMMENDATIoNS
Transportation recommendations have been developed for each corridor and are defined in three modal parts: pedestrian/bicycle, transit, and vehicular. Benning Road east of Minnesota Avenue will continue to be a heavy residential corridor that will experience modest growth over the next 30-years. Retail activity on this corridor will concentrate south of Benning Road along Minnesota Avenue. Travel conditions on the corridor during off-peak periods will remain good. Peak period conditions will exhibit moderate to heavy traffic with the intersection at Minnesota Avenue as the most congested on the corridor.
Right-of-Way Configuration: Sections A through D below show the options for the
right-of-way configurations. The corridor improvements consist of creating mixed traffic transit lane enhancements that reallocate the existing lane striping and curb extensions. The Benning Bridge widening project will redesign the Minnesota/Benning intersection to accommodate safe vehicular flow and the turning radius required by the streetcar as shown in sections A through C.

Bicycle Facilities:
Bicycle lanes are only recommended for the portion of Benning Road east of Minnesota Avenue. Bicycle use west of this location would use parallel roadways, with the exception of the Anacostia River crossing that would require major design enhancements to accommodate bicycles. At the starburst intersection at Bladensburg Road/ Maryland Avenue, the streetcar would transition from the median on Benning Road to a curb lane along H Street. The intersection of Benning Road and Minnesota Avenue continues to exhibit the highest congestion levels as the location services high levels of vehicular and transit traffic. Improvements to this intersection should include accommodations for the Benning Bridge widening project. Buses traveling southbound on Minnesota Avenue block the intersection during stops and while turning to westbound Benning Road. Drivers frequently attempt to go around the bus by making a right turn onto Benning Road from the southbound central lane in front of the bus. The intersection at 44th Street also requires improvement so that southbound 44th Street traffic can merge onto southbound Benning Road. Traffic on Benning Road stacks up through the intersection, prohibiting the 44th Street traffic to merge.
Transit Facilities:
The WMATA Alternative Analysis indicated that there would be 9,00 daily boardings on H Street from Union Station to the start of Benning Road and 6,350 boardings on Benning Road to the Minnesota Avenue Metro.

Extent: North Capitol Street to 14th Street NE
H Street NE Benning Road
This .5-mile long segment is fronted by retail and mixed-use facilities and is surrounded by dense residential neighborhoods. It lies in close proximity to Union Station and the Districts downtown. This corridor will be served by streetcar with stops located on sidewalk extensions. The street will have a hard-paved feel to it with well-furnished sidewalks, adequate street lighting, and public art in the form of sidewalk insets that make cartographic references to the neighborhoods around it. Public art at the top of Hopscotch Bridge highlights the proximity of downtown Washington, D.C. to the west. Air rights developments over the railway tracks will significantly change the public environment along the bridge. Currently, construction documents are being prepared for the corridor and construction will begin shortly.

Three major areas define this segment - the Bridge over Kenilworth Avenue, the intersection of Benning Road and Minnesota Avenue, and Fort Mahan Park. The pedestrian facilities on the bridge will be improved based on the recommendations of the Kenilworth Avenue Corridor Study. Landscape elements will soften the appearance of the bridge and provide places to sit and enjoy views of the waterfront. At the base of the bridge, free-standing sculpture, improved lighting, and signage will announce the transition to Ward 7s Downtown. At the intersection of Benning Road and Minnesota Avenue the sidewalks will be furnished with benches and bike racks. Adequate streetlighting and street trees will create a pleasing environment for shoppers and other pedestrians. Curb cuts will be minimized and utility poles along Minnesota Avenue, near the intersection, will be buried. Public art, in the form of insets in the sidewalk paving, interpretive signage, and, streetsign attachments will recall the rich cultural history of the area. Way-finding signage, which points to places such as the Minnesota Avenue Metro Station, Fort Mahan Park, the pubic library and the Friendship Edison Academy will make navigating the street easier for pedestrians. As one moves away from the intersection toward Fort Mahan Park dense tree canopies, streetlighting, and interpretive signage will compliment the parks natural setting. Streetscape elements should be developed from the streetscape elements in Enhanced Areas section.

BENNING RIDGE
Extent: 46th Street SE to G Street SE
The neighborhood retail area between 46th Street SE and G Street SE serves nearby residents of the Benning Heights, Benning Ridge, and Marshall Heights communities. Between B Street SE and Woodlawn Cemetery Street the corridor offers access to Fort Chapin Park via C Street SE. From H Street SE to Southern Avenue, the Corridor offers neighborhood retail services before it transitions to the Maryland border. Streetlighting will illuminate the roadway and the sidewalk in front of the retail facilities while new trees and other landscape features define the street edge. The furnishing zone is paved with pervious unit pavers and the sidewalks are re-paved. Additional lighting and enhanced crosswalks at the intersections of 46th Street and G Street (classified as a Dangerous Intersection) facilitate easier pedestrian crossings. A gateway element at Southern Avenue highlights the border between the District and Maryland, while improved way-finding signage near C Street SE makes access to Fort Chapin Park easier. Streetscape elements should be developed from the streetscape elements in Enhanced Areas section.

STREETSCAPE TREATMENT
TYPICAL
These guidelines are written with careful consideration of the ongoing efforts of the city and private developers in the area. The goal is to build upon them and integrate efforts for maximum and successful results. The streetscape materials and furnishing recommendations, should be used as the building blocks to create a unique public environment in conformance with existing District standards. The streetscape typology emphasizes commercial segments at neighborhood, community, and regional levels which will be treated with the streetscape elements for Enhanced Areas. The street environment along park residential areas will be treated in accordance with the Typical streetscape elements. These elements should be used in residential, minor retail, and park areas. Where Historic District designation applies, these standards will be superseded by the Districts Historic District standards.
