I’ve been giving some thought to bioretention areas again and thought I’d share a few that I thought were successful. Several were added to the Wangari Garden area back in 2014 and I think there is room for a few on Warder in strategic areas. I like that they can include trees (which Warder needs) and, as in the case of the ones constructed downtown at 19th and L, public art. Below are a few photos of the areas around 19th and L, NW, which are in the Golden Triangle BID area.
"The territory comprising Park View extends from Gresham Street north to Rock Creek Church Road, and from Georgia Avenue to the Soldiers' Home grounds, including the triangle bounded by Park Road, Georgia Avenue, and New Hampshire Avenue" (from Directory and History of Park View, 1921.)
