gross project cost for the
redevelopment of Project Area
B is about $8.4 million and
that the net project cost is about
$5.7 million. The details of these
estimates are given in Appendix
B. The cost figures are based
on a formula set forth in Title I
of the Housing Act of 1949 which
allows a Federal grant to the
community of two-thirds of the
cost of a redevelopment project
if the community provides the
other one-third. The District
of Columbia'S one-third share
may be in cash or public i'm
provements to serve the project
area, or a combination of both.
Tax Return.-The present as
sessed value of land and i'm
provements to be acquired in
Project Area B (excluding pub
lie and tax-exempt properties)
is $2,433.683. Future assessed
values will be about $5.150.000.
At the current tax rate of
$2.15 this means a tax return
to the District of Columbia of
approximately $58,25 more per
year than at present. Even
without estimating savings from
the elimination of much of the
cost of disease and delinquency
which accompany substandard
housing, and of public improve
ments which would have to be
made in the area in any case,
the District of Columbia might
be expected to recapture its
cash investment in Project Area
Evening star., 1952-11-12
Nine Objectives
Souqht for Area

Plan Objectives.-The prin-
cipal objectives of the Project
Area Plan are as follows:
l. To continue the area as
a residential location for low
income persons, many of whom
are employed within walking
distance in the Southwest Sur
vey Area, the central business
district and nearby Government
Offices and establishments.
2. To utilize in the most
direct manner available, school
and recreation facilities which
are most needed by the large
families prevalent in low-in-
come groups.
3. To provide, both as to To-
cation and general environment,
a crosssection of housing types
shown by the survey area anal
ysiS to be needed and market
able, with a substantial proper
ton of these types designated as
low-rent under the District Of
Columbia Redevelopment Act of
1945.
4. To allocate land in the
project area for the Southwest
Expressway.
S. To provide new second
commercial areas to help meet
the city-wide deficit for land in
this use category.
6. To rehabilitate Fourth
street through the stimulus pro-
vided by partial redevelopment
within the project area.
7. To arrange the recrea-
ton facilities of Randall Junior
High School in anticipation Of
the construction Of a swimming
pool which would disrupt the
present layout.
8. To create a well-planned
cohesive neighborhood unit
which will eliminate slum and
alley dwellings and which can be
maintained against blight and
deterioration for the duration Of
the project.
8. To provide maximum op-
portunity for large-scale devel-
opment by private enterprise.
Evening star., 1952-11-12

vided in the act. With such a
supply of low-rent housing, a
substantial number of the pres
ent income families in the
area should be able to return
after redevelopment.
With the well-known scarcity
of low-rent housing through
out the city there will undoubt-
edly always be tenants for this
type of property. More low-rent
units would be economically
feasible but it was not deemed
desirable to have too high a pro-
portion of one economic group
concentrated in one area.
The commission believes
strongly that in the redevelop-
ment of Project Area B the
greatest effort must be made to
provide dwelling units of sizes
suited\to the needs of the pres
ent families in the area and
of the low-income families par
ticularly. It proposes, there
fore, that the new housing be
such as to accommodate ap-
proximately the following distri-
button Of families by size:
Evening star., 1952-11-12
Variety of Dwellings
Intended for Area

Housing.-A variety of dwell
ing types is required by the
specifications to assure a supply
of dwellings appropriate to the
varied needs of the population.
Otherwise. the types would be
controlled in all likelihood by the
speculative factors prevailing at
the moment which might make
one type more profitable than
another. This would throw the
project plan out of balance with
the survey plan and not meet
the needs for varied living types
in each neighborhood unit.
With this objective the plan
provides for from 750 to 900
dwelling units with density and
coverage for each dwelling type
as follows:
Perc't'ge Dwelling Percent
range in units per Of
Rowpeus.s Type number net acre eoys6ge
-" '' 4o-5o 80 'o
Two and 3-story
apartments 5000 435 35
Assuming four persons per
family, the units proposed will
result in a population of from
5000 to 5000. This will be a
reduction Of the number press
emily living in the area from
about $500 to 1000 persons.
This reduction is due both to
the decrease in the area de-
voted to residential use and to
the application of a sound den-
Sity standard.
The plan specifies that a
minimum Of one-third of the
dwellings be for low rent as de-
fined under the District of Co
lumbio Redevelopment Act of
1945 except that the maxi
mum rent on these units
lis to be SIT per room per
month. excluding utilities. This
maximum may be subject to
periodic reconsideration as a
modification Of the plan as pro-

B within as short a time a.

Concluding Comment. - The
Redevelopment Plan for Prof.
ect Area B is but the beginning
Of what must be a series of
similar plans designed progress
sively to eliminate slum and
blighted conditions and to re-
place them with the type and
kind of community Develop
ment which will conform to
the plan of the city as a whole.
These reconstructed parts Of
the city must provide improved
living conditions and an arrange
ment of all land uses consistent
with modern standards of liv-
ing that residents of the Ma
tional Capital have a right to
expect in this day and age.
The process of redevelop-
ment is at best one that will
take many years-probably dec
ades-to complete, for areas Of
Slum and blight are extensive
and are not decreasing. If this
first plan is found to be accept
able, and proves to be a suc-
cessful venture when carried
out, then the community will
have before it a concrete ex-
ample of what can be accom-
pliShed elsewhere.

In addition to the IL still in

Shopping Center Planned
In Most Rundown Area

First Commercial. It was
hoped in the, early stages of
planning that it would not be
necessary to include the Fourth
street frontage in the project
area. The cost of its complete
acquisition would have been
disproportionate to the total
cost of the project and the re-
suits to be obtained. However,
parts of this commercial area
(on both sides of Fourth street
between F and I streets con-
tain a high proportion Of old.
severely deteriorated buildings.
Their ownership is diverse and
most of the stores operate on a
leasehold basis.
To bring about the eventual
recreation of the whole of
Fourth street as sound busi-
ness center, then, the redevelop-
ment plan proposes that the
land agency take the most
deteriorated properties in the
project area for redevelopment
as new, modern shopping CEN
ter. The commission believes
that under the stimulus of re-
development of the most physi-
cally obsolescent block 'front.'
ages, the owners Of property not
included will wish to make their
establishments commensurate
with the character of the new
residential area.
Second Commercial.-In line
with recommendations of the
Comprehensive Plan, the area
north of the expressway will be
developed exclusively for Sc
lected second commercial uses.
The commission recommends
that the land agency provide
space for public. parking in part
Of this area, either on a lease or
sale basis. Some of the park
ing can be an interim use pend

nenC use. The specifications al

which the commission believes
are not suitable forthis area.
II the portion Of the Randall
Recreation Center between I
and K, Half and South Capitol
streets reverts to private use
(see section below on commu-
nifty facilities). and second COM
mercial use allowed by the
specifications may be located
there. The block has a wide
easement running across the
northwest corner which will de-

ity Tor certain uses.

Specificati0ns-The Specifica-

adopted Redevelopment Plan
cover in detail a number of ad-
ditional plan requirements not
herein described. These include
such matters as the necessity
to conform with building. Zon-

and the matters to be included
in covenants and conditions of
the lease or sale of land in the
project area.
Relocation PrOgram.-ReSpon-
sibility for handling the re-
location of families displaced by
redevelopment rests with the
land agency under the District
of Columbia Redevelopment Act
of 1945. though the law re-
quires that the District Com
missioners shall satisfy them

the number of substandard
