Although stormwater, invasive species and time have ravaged Dumbarton Oaks Park, Farrand’s design intent is still visible in many places. Dumbarton Oaks Park Conservancy and Rock Creek Park are committed to returning the Park to a sustainable landscape that reflects Farrand’s design in a manner that meets the challenges of an urban environment.
