#EckingtonAlleyPark
A neighborhood community in Eckington organizing to create DC’s newest park.
Who we are…
A community-led coalition working to transform a vacant, blighted garbage dump in an Eckingotn alley behind Summit Place NE (between U St and Rhode Island Ave NE) into greenspace. We’re dedicated to building community and the establishing permanent green, open space. We hope to create and sustain a beautiful park and to promote a healthy natural environment in Eckington.
