I agree with all that has been said as to why this idea makes no sense. It
reminds me of how when we first moved here, the kids on one side of our
narrow one- way block of Lanier went to Oyster Elementary and the klds on
the other side went to HD Cooke Elementary!

I agree it’s a bad idea. Lanier Heights is a unified neighborhood in its
own right and this would divide the two primary blocks of Lanier Place into
2 neighborhoods. Furthermore, the eastern part of Lanier Heights is
geographically cut off from Mount Pleasant. Harvard Street demarks the
dividing line between Adams Morgan/Lanier Place and Mount Pleasant. The
streets don’t go through, so there’s no continuity and flow between the
neighborhoods.

There is a proposal under consideration to redefine almost the entirety
of Lanier Heights, except for the westernmost bloc of Lanier Place, as
being part of Mount Pleasant
It is one of three discussion maps here:

I am inclined to think this is not a good idea
