Sincerely,
Message to Our Members,
The Golden Triangle is an extraordinary neighborhood in Washington’s central business district. It is home to global corporations, emerging tech companies, and bustling restaurants, hotels, and shops. This year, the Golden Triangle BID implemented several initiatives that marked the neighborhood as a world-renowned destination. Year by year, season by season, and day by day, the Golden Triangle keeps getting brighter.
Most notably, the BID worked with the DC Department of Transportation to complete the Connecticut Avenue Project, which included the iconic median, modern street furniture, and the planning of a new micro park. The BID also worked with its strategic partners to build four rain gardens and to host 100+ events.
These initiatives, and the many others featured in this annual report, helped enhance the neighborhood and provide our members with “Gold Standard” service.

Day by day, the Golden Triangle BID provided a clean, safe, and vibrant neighborhood for area workers, residents, and visitors. Through a team of dedicated Ambassadors, the BID ensured that all daily operations achieved the gold standard. The team of specially trained Ambassadors performed a number of cleaning, greening, and safety services including:
» Collected 51,000+ recycle and trash bags
» Completed 1,800+ hours of power-washing
» Planted 19,000+ flowers throughout the Golden Triangle
The Golden Triangle Ambassadors also helped to sustain low crime levels by reporting suspicious or unusual activity. The BID’s Safety and Security program delivered time-sensitive safety alerts, assisted property managers in creating emergency plans, and partnered with local and federal law enforcement agencies on a variety of initiatives. The Golden Triangle Safety Council, which includes law enforcement agencies, met regularly to discuss neighborhood concerns and safety initiatives.
The BID’s homeless outreach staff worked tirelessly to reduce homelessness. The Golden Triangle’s Pathways to Housing team responded to 162 service calls and made 2,542 face-to-face engagements to provide people with a broad range of housing and supportive services to transition them off the streets.
DAYBYDAYOPERATIONAL IMPROVEMENTS:
» Installed 132 new dual-flow recycling trashcans and 36 new flower baskets
» Increased efficiency by deploying a fleet of all terrain litter vacuums (ATLVs)
» Successfully executed a winter weather work plan — spending 5,000+ hours to clear 32” of snow and ice during winter 2013
In the winter, spring, summer, and fall, the Golden Triangle BID hosted more than 100 events that marked the neighborhood as a vibrant urban destination. With the help of retail sponsorships and supportive partnerships, the BID produced activities that created unique experiences and enhanced the neighborhood’s marketability.
It’s Golden Outside harnessed the strengths of every event into one brand strategy, which deepened our connections and enhanced experiences season by season.
» Winter 2013 - the BID kicked off Gold Thursday with free gift wrapping, Dickens-era carolers, Santa Claus, and flash prizes. This event was held in conjunction with the BID’s “12 Days of Golden Giveaways” online campaign, which received more than 11,000 entries for prizes totaling $8,000.
» Spring 2014 - former host of HGTV’s Yard Crashers Ahmed Hassan joined experts from the Smithsonian, National Arboretum, National Park Service, and WUSA 9 to judge 18 “Golden Streets” tree boxes. This friendly competition, which received nearly 3,000 fan-favorite votes, challenged participating buildings to transform their exterior green space into stunning flower displays.
» Summer 2014 - thousands joined us at “Picnic in the Park” and “Pilates in the Park” for cuddly puppies from the Washington Animal Rescue League, table tennis networking opportunities, cool jazz courtesy of Wolf Trap, celebrity fitness instructors, free massages, and great-tasting smoothies.
» Fall 2014 - three nationally recognized police chiefs assisted Golden Triangle members with emergency planning during the “Stay or Go—Boston Marathon, Navy Yard, and September 11” event. This event was one of six safety and security events that attracted more than 650 people this year.
SEASONBYSEASONONLINE SOCIAL IMPACTS:
» 18,000+ subscribed to BID e-communications
» 1,000+ new followers on Twitter and Facebook
» 260,000+ webpage views in 2014
» 88,000+ people engaged through social media
In fiscal year 2014, the Golden Triangle BID staff focused on long-term strategic initiatives that continue to transform this neighborhood into a world-class destination.
In fiscal year 2014, the BID partnered with DC’s Department of Transportation to complete the Connecticut Avenue Streetscape Project, which included a four-block raised median, new sidewalk pavers (between Farragut Square and Dupont Circle), modern street furniture, and 20-foot tree gardens.
This year, the BID also unveiled four new rain gardens at 19th & L Streets. Funded through a grant from the DC Department of Environment and US EPA, these rain gardens total 2,280 square feet and feature seating for lunch time crowds. The National Wildlife Federation recognized all five rain gardens as official Certified Wildlife Habitat™ sites.
The BID partnered with the Mayor’s Sustainable DC program to transform the Connecticut Avenue Overlook, an underutilized concrete overpass, into a new small park. When finished this park will feature landscaping, bike racks, seating, and pavers with integrated lighting that will gather energy from footsteps.
The BID recently embarked on a newer vision—one that will also have great positive impact on this neighborhood in future years. The Golden Triangle BID has begun working with stakeholders on the collective vision for Pennsylvania Avenue west of the White House—where international organizations, power, and government converge.

Day by day, the Golden Triangle BID provided a clean, safe, and vibrant neighborhood for area workers, residents, and visitors. Through a team of dedicated Ambassadors, the BID ensured that all daily operations achieved the gold standard. The team of specially trained Ambassadors performed a number of cleaning, greening, and safety services including:
» Collected 51,000+ recycle and trash bags
» Completed 1,800+ hours of power-washing
» Planted 19,000+ flowers throughout the Golden Triangle
The Golden Triangle Ambassadors also helped to sustain low crime levels by reporting suspicious or unusual activity. The BID’s Safety and Security program delivered time-sensitive safety alerts, assisted property managers in creating emergency plans, and partnered with local and federal law enforcement agencies on a variety of initiatives. The Golden Triangle Safety Council, which includes law enforcement agencies, met regularly to discuss neighborhood concerns and safety initiatives.
The BID’s homeless outreach staff worked tirelessly to reduce homelessness. The Golden Triangle’s Pathways to Housing team responded to 162 service calls and made 2,542 face-to-face engagements to provide people with a broad range of housing and supportive services to transition them off the streets.
DAYBYDAYOPERATIONAL IMPROVEMENTS:
» Installed 132 new dual-flow recycling trashcans and 36 new flower baskets
» Increased efficiency by deploying a fleet of all terrain litter vacuums (ATLVs)
» Successfully executed a winter weather work plan — spending 5,000+ hours to clear 32” of snow and ice during winter 2013
In the winter, spring, summer, and fall, the Golden Triangle BID hosted more than 100 events that marked the neighborhood as a vibrant urban destination. With the help of retail sponsorships and supportive partnerships, the BID produced activities that created unique experiences and enhanced the neighborhood’s marketability.
It’s Golden Outside harnessed the strengths of every event into one brand strategy, which deepened our connections and enhanced experiences season by season.
» Winter 2013 - the BID kicked off Gold Thursday with free gift wrapping, Dickens-era carolers, Santa Claus, and flash prizes. This event was held in conjunction with the BID’s “12 Days of Golden Giveaways” online campaign, which received more than 11,000 entries for prizes totaling $8,000.
» Spring 2014 - former host of HGTV’s Yard Crashers Ahmed Hassan joined experts from the Smithsonian, National Arboretum, National Park Service, and WUSA 9 to judge 18 “Golden Streets” tree boxes. This friendly competition, which received nearly 3,000 fan-favorite votes, challenged participating buildings to transform their exterior green space into stunning flower displays.
» Summer 2014 - thousands joined us at “Picnic in the Park” and “Pilates in the Park” for cuddly puppies from the Washington Animal Rescue League, table tennis networking opportunities, cool jazz courtesy of Wolf Trap, celebrity fitness instructors, free massages, and great-tasting smoothies.
» Fall 2014 - three nationally recognized police chiefs assisted Golden Triangle members with emergency planning during the “Stay or Go—Boston Marathon, Navy Yard, and September 11” event. This event was one of six safety and security events that attracted more than 650 people this year.

In fiscal year 2014, the Golden Triangle BID staff focused on long-term strategic initiatives that continue to transform this neighborhood into a world-class destination.
In fiscal year 2014, the BID partnered with DC’s Department of Transportation to complete the Connecticut Avenue Streetscape Project, which included a four-block raised median, new sidewalk pavers (between Farragut Square and Dupont Circle), modern street furniture, and 20-foot tree gardens.
This year, the BID also unveiled four new rain gardens at 19th & L Streets. Funded through a grant from the DC Department of Environment and US EPA, these rain gardens total 2,280 square feet and feature seating for lunch time crowds. The National Wildlife Federation recognized all five rain gardens as official Certified Wildlife Habitat™ sites.
The BID partnered with the Mayor’s Sustainable DC program to transform the Connecticut Avenue Overlook, an underutilized concrete overpass, into a new small park. When finished this park will feature landscaping, bike racks, seating, and pavers with integrated lighting that will gather energy from footsteps.
The BID recently embarked on a newer vision—one that will also have great positive impact on this neighborhood in future years. The Golden Triangle BID has begun working with stakeholders on the collective vision for Pennsylvania Avenue west of the White House—where international organizations, power, and government converge.

Day by day, the Golden Triangle BID provided a clean, safe, and vibrant neighborhood for area workers, residents, and visitors. Through a team of dedicated Ambassadors, the BID ensured that all daily operations achieved the gold standard. The team of specially trained Ambassadors performed a number of cleaning, greening, and safety services including:
» Collected 51,000+ recycle and trash bags
» Completed 1,800+ hours of power-washing
» Planted 19,000+ flowers throughout the Golden Triangle
The Golden Triangle Ambassadors also helped to sustain low crime levels by reporting suspicious or unusual activity. The BID’s Safety and Security program delivered time-sensitive safety alerts, assisted property managers in creating emergency plans, and partnered with local and federal law enforcement agencies on a variety of initiatives. The Golden Triangle Safety Council, which includes law enforcement agencies, met regularly to discuss neighborhood concerns and safety initiatives.
The BID’s homeless outreach staff worked tirelessly to reduce homelessness. The Golden Triangle’s Pathways to Housing team responded to 162 service calls and made 2,542 face-to-face engagements to provide people with a broad range of housing and supportive services to transition them off the streets.
DAYBYDAYOPERATIONAL IMPROVEMENTS:
» Installed 132 new dual-flow recycling trashcans and 36 new flower baskets
» Increased efficiency by deploying a fleet of all terrain litter vacuums (ATLVs)
» Successfully executed a winter weather work plan — spending 5,000+ hours to clear 32” of snow and ice during winter 2013
In the winter, spring, summer, and fall, the Golden Triangle BID hosted more than 100 events that marked the neighborhood as a vibrant urban destination. With the help of retail sponsorships and supportive partnerships, the BID produced activities that created unique experiences and enhanced the neighborhood’s marketability.
It’s Golden Outside harnessed the strengths of every event into one brand strategy, which deepened our connections and enhanced experiences season by season.
» Winter 2013 - the BID kicked off Gold Thursday with free gift wrapping, Dickens-era carolers, Santa Claus, and flash prizes. This event was held in conjunction with the BID’s “12 Days of Golden Giveaways” online campaign, which received more than 11,000 entries for prizes totaling $8,000.
» Spring 2014 - former host of HGTV’s Yard Crashers Ahmed Hassan joined experts from the Smithsonian, National Arboretum, National Park Service, and WUSA 9 to judge 18 “Golden Streets” tree boxes. This friendly competition, which received nearly 3,000 fan-favorite votes, challenged participating buildings to transform their exterior green space into stunning flower displays.
» Summer 2014 - thousands joined us at “Picnic in the Park” and “Pilates in the Park” for cuddly puppies from the Washington Animal Rescue League, table tennis networking opportunities, cool jazz courtesy of Wolf Trap, celebrity fitness instructors, free massages, and great-tasting smoothies.
» Fall 2014 - three nationally recognized police chiefs assisted Golden Triangle members with emergency planning during the “Stay or Go—Boston Marathon, Navy Yard, and September 11” event. This event was one of six safety and security events that attracted more than 650 people this year.
SEASONBYSEASONONLINE SOCIAL IMPACTS:
» 18,000+ subscribed to BID e-communications
» 1,000+ new followers on Twitter and Facebook
» 260,000+ webpage views in 2014
» 88,000+ people engaged through social media
In fiscal year 2014, the Golden Triangle BID staff focused on long-term strategic initiatives that continue to transform this neighborhood into a world-class destination.
In fiscal year 2014, the BID partnered with DC’s Department of Transportation to complete the Connecticut Avenue Streetscape Project, which included a four-block raised median, new sidewalk pavers (between Farragut Square and Dupont Circle), modern street furniture, and 20-foot tree gardens.
This year, the BID also unveiled four new rain gardens at 19th & L Streets. Funded through a grant from the DC Department of Environment and US EPA, these rain gardens total 2,280 square feet and feature seating for lunch time crowds. The National Wildlife Federation recognized all five rain gardens as official Certified Wildlife Habitat™ sites.
The BID partnered with the Mayor’s Sustainable DC program to transform the Connecticut Avenue Overlook, an underutilized concrete overpass, into a new small park. When finished this park will feature landscaping, bike racks, seating, and pavers with integrated lighting that will gather energy from footsteps.
The BID recently embarked on a newer vision—one that will also have great positive impact on this neighborhood in future years. The Golden Triangle BID has begun working with stakeholders on the collective vision for Pennsylvania Avenue west of the White House—where international organizations, power, and government converge.
