Are you curious what’s coming to our redeveloped White Flint? Hoping for a one-stop opportunity to see some of the latest plans? Then join Friends of White Flint on Tuesday morning, April 30th, from 9:30-10:30am for a Showcase of Upcoming Projects.

We’re taking over the Whole Foods cafe and giving you an opportunity to take a look at a handful of projects planned in and around the new White Flint and meet the folks behind the ideas. This casual event will have no structured program, just come and take a look at your leisure!

Many thanks to our great friends at:

Wednesday evening I attended the General New Urbanism

I agree, one major thing they can do to attract millennials is to have affordable housing. I feel that most of the housing is targeting empty nesters with big pockets. None of my friends were able to afford to live there till closer to their 30's. We all live outside the downtown and have to drive in and park to make use of the restaurants and bars or metro from the city where a lot of our jobs are. This event was a great idea and I wish it was less crowded so I could have participated more.

Wow, living history right under my nose. I had no idea. Thank you for highlighting this historic site.

I am vitally interested in this topic and the opportunity for input.

I think the idea of taking a step back and broadening the dialogue on branding is a good idea. As I indicated at the most recent FoWF meeting, the discussion seemed to be moving in a direction that would get no community buy-in because we felt largely excluded from the discussion. I understand that this issue has very significant business implications but, up until now, issues have been approached with more of a "we're all in this together" attitude. This was the first instance where it seemed like developers were saying that they should primarily be calling the shots and that the community's perspectives were secondary, almost marginal. The charette has the promise of restoring the balance that has worked so well until now.

Hi! I'm not aware of a specifically-designated senior center being planned for White Flint. But, the Recreation Department is planning a large, comprehensive recreation center next to Shriver Aquatic Center - it's envisioned as having many senior amenities, like a social space and exercise center. We expect more details on this over the next year, or so.
