The Union Wesley Way Designation Act of 2025 aims to symbolically designate a portion of the public alley system in Square 4176, located in Ward 5, as "Union Wesley Way." This designation specifically pertains to the alleyway that runs parallel to 1860 Michigan Avenue, N.E., behind the Union Wesley African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Zion Church. The church has a rich history dating back to 1844 and has been a significant community support center since 1967, hosting various outreach programs and serving as a meeting place for local civic associations.

The bill outlines the legal framework for this designation, referencing sections of the Street and Alley Closing and Acquisition Procedures Act of 1982. It specifies that the portion of the alley system bordering Square 4176, Lot 0028, will be officially recognized as Union Wesley Way. The act will take effect following the Mayor's approval, a congressional review period, and publication in the District of Columbia Register.
