The Southwest Ecodistrict initiative is a cooperative planning effort led by the National Capital Planning Commission to extend sustainable development from the monumental core to the waterfront, illustrated in this 2012 rendering by ZGF Architects. The initiative developed from the recommendations of the 2009 Monumental Core Framework Plan and the direction to increase sustainability under Executive Order 13514. The CFA most recently reviewed the plan in November 2013.
