The DC Historic Alley Building Survey, DC Historic Preservation Office, 2014. https://planning.dc.gov/publication/dc-historic-alley-buildings-survey Acknowledgement: - The HPO would also like to acknowledge Dr. David Salter who shared his vast knowledge on alley history and alley revitalization with the office and continues to send articles, blog posts, and other information on alley happenings across the country and in Canada. Dr. David Salter has his own blog, PreservingDCStables and … a resident of Blagden Alley/Naylor Court. His alley research and interest in alley building preservation and revitalization has inspired this study and will continue to inform the office in its future alley studies and projects.
