In May 1995 Pennsylvania Avenue between 15th and 17th Streets was closed
by the Department of the Treasury to public vehicular traffic. Following
the closure, the National Park Service was asked to coordinate the
development of long-term plans for this area. The public is requested to
share thoughts, ideas, and concerns about
Pennsylvania Avenue at the White House.
