This is your land: 1617 U Street NW

THIS IS YOUR LAND!

The city wants to give away the 2-acres of public land (and air rights) at 1617 U Street NW, for private developers to profit from building more of their luxury housing.

Please sign the Petition

This is your land -- 1617 U Street NW -- Police & Fire stations — This is your land — 1617 U Street NW — Existing Police & Fire stations

Existing emergency services (police & fire stations) are threatened to be razed & disrupted with very little public discourse or impact study.

Another mock up of height and density possibilities with MU10, this time with a courtyard.

It is unacceptable to disrupt emergency services & give away public land so that private real estate speculators can build more expensive “luxury” housing with a fraction of so-called “affordable” units.

Sign the petition: No luxury housing on public land

PLEASE TAKE 5 MINUTES TO SEND A NOTE INTO THE CITY, SAYING ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
