2025 District of Columbia Historic Preservation Plan: Celebrating Our Diversity
2020. 2025 District of Columbia Historic Preservation Plan: Celebrating Our Diversity. DC State Historic Preservation Office, Office of Planning
From the Introduction: "This five-year plan, looking ahead to the year 2025, updates the goals established in the previous plans concluding in 2016 and 2020. This series of plans promotes a continuity of effort that is also responsive to changing needs. It helps measure progress in increments and allows for adjustment of priorities as new challenges arise. The current plan retains much from the previous documents for the sake of consistency and efficiency. It takes progress into account, considers new issues, and refreshes targets toward long-term goals. It retains what remains valid and changes what needs updating. The Plan sets out an ambitious but manageable agenda. It proposes a range of activities for multiple partners: the District's Historic Preservation Office (HPO), city agencies, federal partners, community organizations, businesses, and civic leaders. It seeks the participation of residents in all parts of the District. The 2016 and 2020 plans noted five major themes underlying their recommendations. With a few minor adjustments, the themes remain valid today: Preservation should focus on the basics; We should build from an understanding of history; Preservationists should work together; We should celebrate our achievements; and Preservation should consider new possibilities." Project funding was provided in part by a Historic Preservation Fund grant to the DC State Historic Preservation Office, Office of Planning, administered by the State, Tribal, Local Plans and Grants division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior.
