We Love Social Housing!

We are a network of Ward 1 & Ward 2 neighbors, businesses, churches, and organizations.

Our core crew of 1617 U Street neighbors have gathered more than 1,000 petition signatures of nearby residents, organized more than 200 letters in opposition to be sent to the DC Zoning Commission, and assisted more than 50 people to sign up and testify at recent zoning hearings.

Our Goal: A safe, truly affordable, and racially equitable U Street, NW.

Our Three Principles for the Future of 1617 U Street, NW

1. Public land and air rights stay public.
    
2. In-scale development that emphasizes public safety and preserves and protects the environment and the historic U Street corridor.
    
3. Community-driven planning supported by real data & transparent dialog emphasizing public needs, truly affordable housing, and no displacement
