Development in The District

We've got some great projects happening here in The District, from historic preservation and canopy removal to multi-use, infill development projects. Columbia is growing fast and we're making sure The District remains the economic and cultural heart of the city. This means higher density development, eliminating surface parking lots, encouraging more residential development and building up rather than out.
