Rock Spring Master Plan Abstract This Plan contains the text and supporting maps for a comprehensive amendment to portions of the approved and adopted 1992 North Bethesda/Garrett Park Master Plan and the 2002 Potomac Subregion Master Plan, as amended. It also amends The General Plan (On Wedges and Corridors) for the Physical Development of the Maryland-Washington Regional District in Montgomery and Prince George’s Counties, as amended; the Master Plan of Highways and Transitways, as amended; and the Countywide Bikeways Functional Master Plan, as amended. This Plan covers 535 acres and makes recommendations for land use, density, zoning, transportation, environment, parks, and community facilities. Master and sector plans convey land use policy for defined geographic areas and should be interpreted together with relevant countywide functional plans and County laws and regulations. Plan recommendations provide comprehensive guidelines for the use of public and private land and should be referred to by public officials and private individuals when making land use decisions. Public and private land use decisions that promote plan goals are essential to fulfilling a plan’s vision. Master and sector plans look ahead 20 years from the date of adoption, although they are intended to be revised every 10 to 15 years. Moreover, circumstances when a plan is adopted will change and the specifics of a plan may become less relevant over time. Plans do not specify all development possibilities. Their sketches are for illustrative purposes only, intended to convey a sense of desirable future character rather than detailed recommendations for a particular design.

  • Has the Retail Apocalypse Hit the DC Area?
    POLICY BRIEF Has the Retail Apocalypse Hit the DC Area? Leah Brooks, Urbashee Paul and Rachel Shank APRIL 2018 POLICY BRIEF APRIL 2018 | LEAH BROOKS, URBASHEE PAUL AND RACHEL SHANK1 In 1977, the White Flint Mall opened to great acclaim as Maryland’s premier mall, complete with glass elevators, glamorous anchor stores, and an exciting eatery. Now, more than four decades later, White Flint Mall is situated in a sea of empty parking lots. Except for anchor tenant Lord and Taylor, with which the mall owner is in protracted litigation, the mall sits empty. About a decade before White Flint launched, Northern Virginia’s Tysons Corner Center opened, also to acclaim. Tyson’s Corner has seen continued success,2 welcoming Apple’s flagship store in 2001,3 and Spanx’s first brick and mortar store in 2012.4 The promised increase in walkability ushered in by the Silver Line expansion has heralded opportunity for new residential and commercial development.5 To what extent is this divergence due to e-commerce? The Rise of E-commerce Indeed, there is substantial evidence that brick-and-mortar retail is suffering. CNN Money10 reports that 2017 marked E-commerce dates to 1994, when the New York Times the highest number of retail store closure announcements in reported that Philadelphia’s Phil Brandenberger used his history. Within the past year, once-prominent malls in computer to purchase a Sting album. In the following year, New Jersey and Pennsylvania have closed almost 200 Amazon sold its first book, and Pierre Omidyar founded stores. And the wave seems unlikely to be over: Toys R Us Ebay.6 has recently declared bankruptcy, while long-time anchor tenants Sears, Kmart, J.C.

  • Appendix D: Retail Planning Study
    Appendix D: Retail Planning Study In 2013, the Montgomery County Planning Department and the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission (MNCPPC) initiated an effort to update its 1994 Bethesda Central Business District Plan. As a component, the project team sought a retail study to address: • the relative positioning of each district’s existing retail and future needs (over 20 years) to identify market supportable strategies to improve the area’s retail environment; • the phasing of retail for build out to guide the formation of development, zoning, and growth policies, and develop synergies with other land use functions; and, • the strategies to improve conditions for existing retailers and eliminate any obstacles that might dissuade tenants from locating in any of the study areas. Streetsense and BAE Urban Economics – two local consulting firms – undertook this study and planning document. The project kicked-off in August 2014. The work effort to complete the Retail Planning Strategy for the Bethesda Downtown Plan included extensive field survey, data analysis, market analysis, and observation of specific conditions existent in each of Bethesda Downtown’s subdistricts. The following document provides a clear direction for Bethesda’s retail future.

    OCTOBER 03 2014 VOLUME 45 ISSUE 40 • CELEBRATING 45 YEARS AS AMERICA’S GAY NEWS SOURCE • WASHINGTONBLADE.COM Holder leaves signifi cant LGBT rights legacy after stepping down as attorney general By CHRIS JOHNSON [email protected] After serving for more than six years as U.S. attorney general, Eric Holder leaves a signifi cant imprint on the record of the Obama administration — and at the forefront of that legacy is his role in advancing LGBT rights. At an event last week in the State Dining Room of the White House announcing his departure, President Obama said Holder made revitalizing the Civil Rights Division at the Justice Department a priority because he believes it’s “the conscience of the building.” “And several years ago, he recommended that our government stop defending the Defense of Marriage Act — a decision that was vindicated by the Supreme Court, and opened the door to federal recognition of same-sex marriage, and federal benefi ts for same-sex couples,” Obama said. “It’s a pretty good track record.” The sense that LGBT rights had signifi cantly advanced during the administration was echoed by Holder in remarks that followed Obama’s. “We have begun to realize the promise of equality for our LGBT brothers and sisters and their families,” Holder said. ‘We have begun to realize the promise of equality for our LGBT brothers and sisters and their CONTINUES ON PAGE 12 families,’ said ERIC HOLDER.
