A Unique Environmental Park for Learning and Observation
A renovated pedestrian bridge now provides access to these islands, and over 40 acres of tidal marsh in Kingman Lake are currently being restored. The renovated islands will include a new Environmental Education Center and a memorial tree grove dedicated to the District of Columbia schoolchildren who were victims of the September 11 terrorist attack. Self-guided trails and interpretive stations will instruct visitors about the abundant natural history of the Anacostia River and will track contemporary efforts to restore the river’s wildlife, habitats and water quality.
