Exciting News: A New Website is Coming Soon!

We’re thrilled to announce that the Anacostia Business Improvement District (BID) is launching a brand-new website very soon! Our goal is to create a more user-friendly, informative, and visually engaging online experience for everyone in our community—whether you’re a local resident, business owner, or visitor.

Stay tuned for a fresh design, improved navigation, and up-to-date resources that will make it easier to explore all the exciting developments happening in Anacostia. We can’t wait to share it with you!

Thank you for your continued support. We look forward to connecting with you through our new online hub.

A Business Improvement District (BID) is a self-taxing district established by property owners to enhance the economic vitality of a specific commercial area. Established in 2012 as a DC nonprofit, the Anacostia Business Improvement District aims to support a thriving, diverse commercial and arts district via various programs, events, and initiatives.
