SAINT ELIZABETHS EAST - FINAL NOVEMBER 2008

Right: Land Use Diagram

Land UsesOne of the development principles of theFramework Plan is to reinvigorate the campus as animportant multi-neighborhood center. Central to thisprinciple is the presence of a dynamic mix of useson the campus and within each new neighborhoodthat blend places to live, work and play. Communityamenities, including cultural, educational, social,and recreational spaces are important features inthis plan. New residential development at SaintElizabeths should include a range of housing choicesthat are affordable to multiple income levels. Thereis also a unique opportunity to provide housing forpeople with special needs, especially the physicallyand mentally challenged and seniors.

The land use diagram right illustrates the preferredlocations for land uses by new neighborhood. Thecategories are purposefully broad to be responsiveto future market shifts and potential for multipledevelopment partners. Still, each campus has itsown identity supported by a tailored mix of usesthat blend together to create a comprehensiveframework for redevelopment. In case of thehistoric buildings, future uses may depend upon thecondition of the buildings and the appropriatenessof the use to the physical character of the buildings.

Right: Development Scale Diagram

Green BuildingGreen building is an approach to buildings design, construction and operations that conserves resources while it protects human health. Green buildings use less energy, consume fewer natural resources such as water and forest products, and emit fewer pollutants into the environment. Because they are designed to make use of natural light and good ventilation, green buildings provide a healthier indoor environment for their occupants. Studies show that students in green buildings learn better and workers in green buildings are more productive.

Green buildings is an integral part of the District’s sustainable development strategy. The Green Building Act of 2006 requires that all District public buildings meet the US Green Building Council’s LEED certi cation standards for environmental performance. The Districtsupports private sector innovation by expediting LEED Gold-level projects through the permitting process. By 2012, all new private development projects will be required to meet LEED certi cation.

Sustainable Neighborhood SystemsEnergy -sharing systems, such as geo-thermal loops, can take excess heat generation form one use (of ce) and harness it for another use (residential) where it is needed. these systems within multi-building projects can achieve signi cant cost-savings.

Stormwater ManagementThe management and treatment of stormwater and its runoff by replicating pre-development watershed conditions, replenishing groundwater, ltering pollutants, and reducing and slowing runoff could reduce ooding in the area. A wide range of innovative techniques can lessen the demand on traditional structured “pipe” techniques. An example could be the utilization of “Green Roofs” to lower energy costs and reduce impervious surface water runoff.

Development Scale and Urban Design

Saint Elizabeths presents a unique opportunity torealize the District’s urban design and sustainabilitygoals at a large scale. Sustainability can be achieved through innovation and excellence in both individual building design and neighborhood systems.

The diagram on the right illustrates the ranges of development intensity on the East campus. Higher density, mixed-use development at the Congress Heights Metro station and the North Campus is a critical step insupporting any redevelopment of Saint ElizabethsEast, in serving local commercial needs, andin responding to the District’s desire for TransitOriented Development (TOD). The chart on thefollowing page provides recommendation on thescale of development and urban design features.These are critical to achieving the dual goals ofsensitive in ll development and walkable, amenityrich, urban neighborhoods.

General Urban Design recommendations:

High-quality architecture that is creative, • sustainable, and contextual to the campusStreet wall variety through articulation of building • facades, massing, setbacks, etc.Ground oor retail and pedestrian level conditions • that encourage retail creation and walkability through building materials, storefront displays, signage, etc. Appropriate transition between new development •

and the historic buildings, grounds, and adjacent lower scale residential neighborhoods.
