Alexander Crummell School:
Preservation Today
In 2012, DC planned to use the area to hold tour buses, but were immediately protested against. In 2016, they decided to redevelop the land for shopping, apartments, and more. The building is on the National Register of Historic Places and was placed on DC Preservation League's Endangered List. It is still abandoned.
