Episode Details

The Trump administration is moving ahead with a major upgrade of the aging Rock Creek Tennis Center in D.C., aiming to lure private investment to modernize the venue and keep the annual DC Open in the city. While the Interior Department says all legal steps are complete and the facility’s condition justifies the overhaul, National Park Service staff raised alarms over a proposed lease expansion that could threaten park protections and public access. Despite internal pushback, senior Park Service leaders approved the larger footprint, and though a call for proposals was issued last year, no final deal has yet been reached — leaving the future of this iconic parkland and its tennis legacy hanging in the balance.
