Contest Asked
For NV. Plans

The idea of a competition
among architects and city plan
ners for plans for development
Of the 925-acre northwest Wash
Iington renewal area came before
the Redevelopment Land Agency
Board today.
The board decided at its meet
ing to invite Louis Justement,
prominent architect here, who
put forward the idea, to appear
before the board and discuss the
proposal.
The Northwest renewal area
lis much more complex than the

Iment project. II is hoped that
Iit might be tied up in a single
planning package. rather than in
separate sections as was done
Iin the Southwest.
The idea of q competition, as
Ioutlined by Malcolm Burrows,
assistant executive director of
the land agency, would be to
obtain the best of planning fea-
lures in q rough plan at a start
toward getting the Northwest
project of the ground. Stable
awards or prizes might be Of
|fered in the contest.
Board Chairman John A. Re-
mon said he may seek a meeting
with the Commissioners on the
subject Of the proposed George
Washington University urban
renewal project If they are to
receive an adverse recommends
ton on it from Assistant Engi-
neer Commissioner Robert
Mathe. The board was advised
that Col. Mathe is to make a
report to the city heads on the
subject.
The Urban Renewal Advisory
council has recommended

project for the present time. Mr..

report. he wants to see the Com
missioners on the project.
