UMD, PG County Prove Transit Doesn’t Automatically Translate to Smart Growth

September 21st, 2007  |  by David Daddio  |  published in M Square Research Park, Purple Line, Transportation

Service began at the College Park metro station on December 11th, 1993. Since that time, only one Transit Oriented Development (the FDA building) has been built in the area. What’s the only other major construction project in the immediate area in the past ten years? A 1,345 space parking garage. Such is the plight of [...]

Rising From the Mud

February 13th, 2007  |  by David Daddio  |  published in General College Park, M Square Research Park, NOAA Building, Route 1

We often use one word to describe the amount of development coming to College Park – “staggering“. Yet while driving down Route 1, not one crane can be seen nor construction project underway.

The Gazette reported on the project in [...]

Green NOAA Building Coming to M-Square

October 27th, 2006  |  by Sam Snellings  |  published in M Square Research Park, NOAA Building

College Park isn’t just bursting with new residential development – M-Square (our explanation), the university’s office park, will welcome a 280,000 square foot building that will house the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) new Center for Climate and Weather Prediction. This 50 million dollar center by developer Opus East broke ground in more ways [...]

Bethesda Park???

September 29th, 2006  |  by David Daddio  |  published in Downtown, East Campus, Enclave at 8700 - Formerly Starview Plaza, M Square Research Park, On Campus Development, Route 1

While doing some research for our presentation to the SGA last night, we came across some shocking data. Even though we are one of the most outspoken organizations constantly exclaiming College Park’s ‘ripeness for redevelopment’ and are on record talking about CP’s imminent “massive development campaign” several times, putting these numbers in one place really [...]
