The Boathouse Row Planning Study focuses on the following key items: Improve access to new public facilities and the Anacostia River; Balance the needs of existing boathouse users, future users, and the general public; Propose any new development at a scale and intensity that is sensitive to the existing boathouse character and the delicate riverfront environment; and Incorporate sustainable site design and green building techniques. Three community wide public meetings were held in addition to four advisory committee meetings over the course of this study.
