The Dock is a pier that spreads across Kingman Lake in Washington, DC in the middle of what would be a bridge it opens up into an area about 40 ft by 30 ft. The Dock was built by the Washington DC government as part of a city beautification project. When the project's budget hit well over the projected mark the site was abandoned, leaving equipment, building materials, and the newly built dock to fall into disrepair and unused. The Dock is near Stadium Armory Metro Stop in Washington, DC. ==The greater area== The area which is known as ''The Dock Lands'' by those who frequent the area includes; The Dock itself, a small island, a concrete area, and Kingman Lake. The Island is the length of approximately three football fields. (This figure is an approximation observed from satellite mapping of the area with RFK in sight.) On the far end of The Island was a birdhouse used for the reintroduction of Barn Owls to the area. After the project was finished the site was left for possible later use, however a fire burnt down all but the frame of the building. Kingman Lake is a small lake made as a flood run off for the Anacostia River. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Dock, Washington, D.C.」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
