Mark your calendars for April 15th as your taxes will (hopefully) be completed and you have the opportunity to see a presentation on the preferred land use concept for a portion of the Baileys Crossroads Community Business Center (CBC).
The concept will be presented at the Goodwin House Auditorium, 3440 South Jefferson Street, Falls Church on April 15th from 7-9 pm. Parking is available in the visitors lot.
The concept is intended to stimulate revitalization of this area, as well as take advantage of the proposed streetcar route to run between the CBC and Pentagon City. It features more mixed-used development; easier pedestrian, bicycle and transit rider access; and increase green spaces.
It is envisioned that the densest development will be focused in the area near the future streetcar stop along South Jefferson Street on the north side of Leesburg Pike. This urban-style downtown will incorporate mixed-use buildings with ground-floor retail, a tree-lined grid of streets and a new arts center. A greenway will connect the north and south sides of Leesburg Pike.
The land use concept specifically covers the area to the south and east of the interchange of Leesburg Pike (Route 7) and Columbia Pike (Route 244) in the Baileys Crossroads Community Business Center area.
