Hill Talk: Heritage Trail Plans Nearly Finished
Blueprints for the H Street Heritage Trail are almost complete and will be submitted for review in September. Cultural Tourism DC has prepared a tentative route map as well as sign locations and content, said Jane Freundel Levey, a historian with the organization.
The application will be submitted to a review and National Park Service board that includes representatives of the D.C. departments of Transportation and Parks and Recreation.
The trail will be called Hub, Home, Heart: Greater H Street Heritage Trail. Levey said the title refers to the corridors history as a shopping, transportation and family center.
Trail applications are generally noncontroversial and are quickly approved, Levey said.
