Crawford | 2017-02-10 | 2017 | 2017-02 | Democrat | House | DC | Eleanor Norton | N000147 | norton.house.gov | legacy | WASHINGTON, D.C.—Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton today released the following statement on the passing of former District of Columbia Councilmember H.R. Crawford. “With the death of H.R. Crawford, the District of Columbia has lost a particularly dedicated Washingtonian who gave the city 12 years of service at the D.C. Council representing Ward 7. As a real estate developer, he reclaimed run-down buildings to improve low- and moderate-income housing. “Even while engaged in real estate management his entire professional life, H.R. continued to work in the public interest. He served as chairman of the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments and the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority. H.R.’s contributions to D.C. were deeply felt and he will be missed by all those whose lives were improved by his work.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
