MLK Plaza Station Site Development Study
Share:
Through the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Plaza Station Site Development Study, the department will advance a site development plan for the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Plaza Metrorail Station.
The final site development plan will evaluate transit infrastructure, public spaces, and mixed-use residential development to produce a preferred vision for the redevelopment of the demolished parking garage on the county’s property. This redevelopment will serve as a catalyst for the surrounding area.
By incorporating community feedback and innovative design principles, the project seeks to create a transit hub that facilitates efficient transportation and serves as a vibrant, inclusive space for social and economic activities.
