Happy Pride Month from the Office of Planning (OP)! As the District hosts WorldPride 2025 and celebrates 50 years of Pride celebrations in DC, we’re inviting people to explore and be inspired by our local queer history. Read the article below to learn more about the DC Queer History Map we released this month.
OP also launched the Designing Queer Futures Survey this month to collect your ideas on inclusive, safe, and joyful spaces for queer people. As part of our work in developing the District’s next comprehensive plan, DC 2050, we are exploring how DC can support LGBTQ+ communities through inclusive public spaces, public art, housing, and more.
Sincerely,
Anita Cozart
Director, DC Office of Planning
