In the coming weeks, the public will be invited to submit nominations to determine the overall name for the trio of new public spaces resulting from the FL-NY Intersection reconfiguration. Read more about the naming process and the project below.
- Step 1: Imagine. Think about your neighborhood and your community. What makes it special? What are the defining historic, contemporary, or social aspects that make it unique, and which of these attributes could inform the overall name of the new Florida Avenue-New York Avenue NE public spaces?
- Step 2: Submit. From April 17 to June 25, the NoMa BID will be soliciting one overall name suggestion for the trio of new public spaces resulting from the FL-NY intersection redesign through an online survey.
- Step 3: Vote. Following the nominations, a selection of 4-5 names will be presented for a community vote, where you can state your preference for a preferred name. The community’s vote will become the basis for a recommendation to the DC Council and Mayor. Together, they will enact legislation to officially name the spaces.
