Second Community Wide Meeting

On September 24^th, NCI along with the DC Housing Authority and the Barry Farm redevelopment team – Preservation of Affordable Housing (POAH) and A&R Development – held the second community-wide meeting to refine the Barry Farm redevelopment plan to respond to key questions raised in the recent DC Court of Appeals decision.  In this meeting, participants prioritized feedback gathered over the previous three meetings.  Feedback was grouped into four categories – Design, Program, Relocation and Return; participants marked their top three priorities in each category.  In future meetings, the team will present design, program, relocation and return strategies based on the prioritized feedback.  Meeting materials can be found here:

• September 24^th Feedback Boards
• Consolidated Feedback from Resident-Only Meetings
• Relocation Map (shows areas of the city where Barry Farm residents have relocated)
• Court Decision Summary
• Meeting Flyer

Future meetings are scheduled for Oct 10^th and Oct 22^nd.  All meetings will be held at the Barry Farm Recreation Center, 1230 Sumner Road SE.  An Expo (opportunity to meet the developer, service providers and review background materials) will run from 5:30 – 6:30 each day.  The meetings will begin at 6:30 each day.
