D.C.'s cut of the Walter Reed Army Medical Center campus will include  
all street frontage along Georgia Avenue under revised boundaries  
unveiled Wednesday.

The District, the State Department and the U.S. Army renegotiated the  
boundaries after the General Services Administration relinquished its  
right to 34 acres late last year. The District plans a major mixed- 
use development on its portion of the 113-acre Walter Reed campus  
once the Army Medical Center vacates for Bethesda, perhaps as soon as  
2012.

"This new boundary map greatly increases the development and job

control of the entire Georgia Avenue frontage," Mayor Vincent Gray  
said in a statement. "It will also allow for better connectivity  
across the site with new entrances off of 16th Street."
