GMBA Lunch: Urban Design Guidelines for Commercial Revitalization Districts & Areas
Please join us for the Greater Merrifield Business Association for our July Lunch Meeting
Featuring Special Guest Speakers:
Joanne Fiebe & Doug Loescher from the Fairfax County Office of Community Revitalization
Topic:
Urban Design Guidelines for Commercial Revitalization Districts & Areas
The practice of urban design addresses the physical features that define the character of streets, public spaces, neighborhoods and communities. Urban design is used to align the desired scale and character of development with the social, economic and aesthetic values of a community.
Fairfax County is committed to achieving a high standard
of urban design and architectural quality in its Commercial
Revitalization Districts (CRDs) and Commercial Revitalization
Areas (CRAs). Urban Design Guidelines for these areas are a
means to provide best practices and detailed design suggestions
for new development, redevelopment and capital projects to
ensure that they integrate compatibly with their surroundings,
function well, are aesthetically pleasing, support community
vitality, and improve the overall livability of an area.
The Commercial Revitalization Districts & Areas are:
Annandale
Bailey's Crossroads & Seven Corners
McLean
Merrifield
Richmond Highway
Springfield
