In 2023, members of the nonprofit civic association Friends of Kingman Park came together to discuss ways to to ensure that local residents’ voices were heard as the District considers the future of the RFK Stadium site. RFK Futre was one outcome of that initial June meeting. The hope is to serve as a community-led hub for information about the project and showcase your vision for the future of the RFK stadium site.

RFK Future surveyed local residents and canvassed door-to-door in August 2023 to better understand community priorities and to craft a vision for the new site that took into consideration what the residents of the areas surrounding the former stadium would like to see. In October 18 2023, RFK Future presented the results of the survey to Mayor Bowser.

Now, a deal between the District and the Washington Commanders is in front of the DC Council to develop the land. RFK Future is committed to bringing neighbors’ voices to the center of the conversation. Our community deserves a seat at the table as we envision the future of the development site.
