From WMATA:

“Metro’s Brookland-CUA Station is primed for growth as part of a 10-year Strategic Plan for Joint Development to create a vibrant transit-oriented development. This includes changes to bus and Kiss & Ride facilities that would provide opportunities for a mix of housing and retail on Metro’s existing property around the station. Metro is asking the public to provide input on these proposed changes to the station’s transit facilities.

Under the proposal, Metro would reconfigure the bus loop, relocate the Kiss & Ride lot to an on-street facility, and reduce the existing 34 Kiss & Ride spaces to eight spaces. The proposed facility changes would enable Metro to seek a joint development partner to deliver approximately 400,000 square-feet of mixed-use development. (more…)
