[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC is concerned about housing and not having enough, why isn't' the city developing Rock Creek Park? I'm not saying build over the entire thing, but take a sizeable chunk of it and build affordable housing. [/quote] It’s a nation park. Like most national parks it was undesirable land to develop. You want more housing …build up. All you have to do is remove the height limits in DC. [/quote] Could even just remove or lighten height limits outside of the downtown/federal core.[/quote] While it is currently illegal to build taller than the Washington Monument, there is nothing illegal about converting Federal land to housing.[/quote] Actually, it is illegal to convert National Park land to housing (unless it’s for National Park Service personnel).
