DC Historic Preservation Review Board Reassesses Vote to Demolish MARABAR Site-Specific Installation

East City Art

The Cultural Landscape Foundation launched a campaign on March 31, 2020, to get the case reopened and the vote reassessed, asserting that the HPRB was not adequately informed about the plaza renovation’s impact on MARABAR. HPRB Chair Marnique Heath affirmed TCLF’s position, noting that the “issue of the sculpture was not raised” by NGS.
