1) Innovative: The City of Gaithersburg facilitates research and development that includes bio‐tech firms and NIST. Enhancing this structure can benefit the city’s economy. 2) Transportation hub: lake forest mall is conveniently located parallel to 270 and the MARC train. It is also not too far away from Shady Grove metro station. Lake Forest mall redevelopment can extend this connectivity to the area’s growing population with light rail. 3) Harmony: The City of Gaithersburg includes many beautiful parks. We do not need to cut down more trees, instead, why not put those vacant surface lots in use.
