Metro is considering the redevelopment of the Park & Ride surface lot of the east side of the College Park-U of Md station into a multifamily residential building with ground floor retail. The proposed project concept by a private developer is anticipated to include:
- Two buildings with approximately 430 residential units and ground floor retail
- Enhancements to the stream area next to the station as an environmental amenity and pedestrian plaza
To implement this joint development project, the surface lot on the eastern side of the station will be removed. In anticipation of this project, the State of Maryland and Prince George's County financed the construction of the 1,290-space Park & Ride garage that opened in 2005 to replace and expand the number of spaces lost from this proposed project.
The comment period has ended. Feedback collected from the public about this proposal will be provided to WMATA's Board of Directors for final review and approval. If this project is approved, construction is projected to begin in 2018.
