DC Metrocentric

What to do with 62 acres of land is something that is on the mind of District officials as they finalize plans to take over control of the old Walter Reed Army Medical Center, which is slated to close in 2011 and move to its new digs in Maryland (pictured). During the next 12 months the District will produce a reuse plan for the southern half of the campus, which is right along Georgia Avenue.

While it is still very early in the process, it is likely the final plans will call for mixed-use development along the Georgia Avenue corridor. If you are interested in following the progress, the development now has its own website walterreedlra.dc.gov and we know many people will be following this closely.
