B 26-0534 Legislature · 26th Council Period (2025-2026)

Charlie McCormick Way Designation Act of 2025

This bill would symbolically rename the 2500 block of Champlain Street NW in Ward 1 to "Charlie McCormick Way" in honor of local bike advocate Charlie McCormick. It directly affects the Adams Morgan neighborhood by commemorating McCormick’s legacy as a longtime resident, founder of City Bikes (a 2003 League of American Bicyclists award-winning store), and advocate for cycling infrastructure. The bill follows required procedures, including a supportive resolution from ANC 1C, and serves solely as a ceremonial designation with no policy changes or fiscal impact. It is a non-substantive tribute to recognize McCormick’s contributions to the community.
