Event Spotlight
Tea Talks & Pop-Ups
 The NCI team has been busy hosting community events intended to spark conversations about the community and planned development activities. The NCI team is committed to building a network of community members, Park Morton residents and neighbors that are focused on ensuring that the planned redevelopment benefits everyone. To that end, over the past few months, we’ve hosted Tea Talks at local shops, Wednesday afternoon Pop Ups at Park Morton, and Friday Night Walks starting at Wall of Books. We welcome and encourage Park Morton residents and neighbors to join us! For more information, you can email Aimee McHale at aimee.mchale@dc.gov.
