1906.1Based on land availability, planning policies, and regional growth trends, the Anacostia Waterfront area is projected to more than double its population between 2005 and 2025. The Planning Area is expected to grow from 8,100 households in 2005 to 17,500 households in 2025, with a projected increase in population from 14,700 to 33,100. Much of the growth is expected to consist of moderate to high density residential development along the Washington Channel and Near Southeast, and on the east side of the waterfront at Poplar Point. The Waterfront Planning Area represents 17 percent of the household growth expected in the District of Columbia over the next 20 years. 1906.1
