Wisconsin Avenue Development Framework: What You Need To Know

The D.C. Office of Planning (OP) provided an update on the Wisconsin Avenue Development Framework at a public meeting. The framework, finalized in February 2024, aims to increase housing and affordable housing opportunities along Wisconsin Avenue through zoning changes. OP is developing new special purpose zones for higher-density areas and proposing map amendments for moderate-density areas. Community input is being sought on whether projects should undergo Design Review. The proposed zoning changes will focus on private properties and enhance affordable housing production in Ward 3.
