Tonight (Wed, Oct. 5) ANC 6B’s Hill East Task Force will hold a meeting on the status of the Eastern Branch Boys & Girls Club Building. The meeting will be from 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm at Payne Elementary School, 1445 C Street SE.
The building, located at C and 17th Sts. SE and owned by the city, has been vacant since the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Washington closed its doors in 2007. In 2009, Ward 6 Councilmember Tommy Wells formed a task force to discuss the building and to make recommendations on potential uses. Read the task force report (pdf).
During tonight’s meeting, the Hill East Task Force will hear from:
- DRES on the current condition of the building,
- Chuck Burger, chair, and members of Councilmember Wells’ Eastern Branch Task Force
- Neighborhood residents.
