Greening Downtown DC

The Downtown BID's Greening Downtown DC initiative is a comprehensive set of programs and services where the Downtown BID serves as a facilitator and a catalyst by forming partnerships to undertake research, establish measures, communicate information and convene training sessions. The initiative targets four interrelated areas:

  1. Greening new and existing buildings
  2. Educating tenants on green best practices
  3. Improving public spaces
  4. Enhancing transportation options

The Downtown BID believes in “the triple bottom
line,”a way of doing business that protects the
planet, people and profit; and our initiative will assist
stakeholders--including residents, businesses and
workers--with all elements necessary for success.
