The National Park Service (NPS) and the District of Columbia (District), as joint lead agencies, are preparing an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for Redevelopment at the Robert F. Kennedy (RFK) Memorial Stadium Campus (Project), in Washington, D.C.
The purpose of the Project is to revitalize the existing RFK Memorial Stadium Campus area and proximate Anacostia River waterfront into a vibrant, mixed-use development that welcomes residents and visitors, offering a variety of parks, new neighborhoods, and civic amenities, filling in an essential missing piece in the unique landscape of the Anacostia River and the RFK Memorial Stadium Campus consistent with the D.C. Robert F Kennedy Memorial Stadium Campus Revitalization Act, Pub. L. 118-274
The review will encompass proposed commercial and residential development within the RFK Memorial Stadium Campus, including parks and open space; pedestrian, roadway, and transit facilities; and associated utilities.
