Penn Ave

Linda talks with Susan Spain about the redesign of the section of Pennsylvania Avenue in front of the White House that has been blocked to motor traffic. After the Oklahoma City bombing, the street was closed to traffic for security reasons. Spain's plan, currently under review, would make the area into a park which would also allow official motor traffic. Spain is a landscape architect and National Park Service Planner. She leads the team for the "Pennsylvania Avenue at the White House" Long Term Design.
