  • When Andy Stack Moved to Columbia, Md., in 1977, The
    hen Andy Stack moved to Columbia, Md., in 1977, the planned community was a decade old and tens of thousands of residents strong. He thought it was a great place to live and work. Shops and walking Wtrails were nearby, new schools were popping up, and there was racial and economic diversity. It was convenient to Baltimore, Md., and Washington, D.C., and there was green space everywhere. Flash forward to the present as Columbia cel- ebrates its 50th birthday this year. The population now exceeds 100,000. Construction is under way on Downtown Columbia, a mixed-use development that eventually could encompass 5,500 residential units, 1 million square feet of retail space, 5 million square feet of offices, 640 hotel rooms, and a confer- ence center. BY STEVE BATES PRINCIPAL PHOTOGRAPHY BY ROBERT MERHAUT GoodAS 18 x COMMON GROUND JANUARY FEBRUARY 2017 Gold©2017 Community Associations Insitute Columbia, Md., was developed 50 years ago to be a new town that would represent the best of America. That ideal still holds true for one of the country’s first master-planned common- interest communities—even as it continues to grow. JANUARY FEBRUARY 2017 COMMON GROUND x 19 ©2017 Community Associations Insitute Stack isn’t alone in thinking that Columbia has accomplished something. In 2016, Money magazine ranked it as the best small U.S. city to live. “Columbia, Md., turns 50 next year, and it’s never looked better,” says the article. What makes Columbia special? In part, it’s the open space that was set aside during Columbia’s planning in the 1960s—a whopping 3,600 acres of it.
