REMINDER: Cafritz Property Workshops This Week

September 12th, 2007  |  by Chris Ellepola  |  published in Cafritz Property

The fifth Cafritz Property meetings will be held this SATURDAY (Sept. 15, 10am-noon) and TUESDAY (Sept. 18, 7pm-9pm) at RIVERDALE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL (5006 Riverdale Rd, Riverdale MD). Both identical workshops will present a concept plan for the mixed use development. The concept plans are to be based on design principles culled from previous workshops. There [...]

Local neccesity for mixed-use on Cafritz Property?

August 3rd, 2007  |  by Chris Ellepola  |  published in Cafritz Property

In this article we draw attention back to a concern aired in a previous post. Many citizens have spoken up for the Cafritz’s to keep their property undeveloped, or to not pursue changing existing zoning to accommodate mixed use. Up to the second (previous) round of meetings at the end of June, the development team [...]

Cafritz Design Principles

August 1st, 2007  |  by Chris Ellepola  |  published in Cafritz Property

Round three of Cafritz Property development public meetings took place last week where design principles were publicized. These principles will be used to draft concept plans. The completed concept plans will be presented in a fourth round of public meetings in September before the Cafritz’s apply for rezoning. Identical meetings for the concept plans will [...]

Alternatives to Mixed-Use Cafritz Development?

June 26th, 2007  |  by Chris Ellepola  |  published in Cafritz Property

The third meeting for the Cafritz Property was a summary of community input from the previous first two meetings that the developer found to be salient (as were reported in our previous Cafritz post). A large obvious chunk of public opinion that was not reported back at all was the interest of many citizens to [...]

Cafritz Development Update

June 23rd, 2007  |  by Chris Ellepola  |  published in Cafritz Property

June 14th saw the 3rd and final meeting of the initial round of Cafritz Property community workshops. The development team has publicized the following rough time line of further planning stages for development: 1) design principles 2) concept plan 3) file for rezoning. Public input from the completed initial round of meetings is now being [...]

More Purple Line, Cafritz Meeting Tonight

June 7th, 2007  |  by David Daddio  |  published in Cafritz Property, Purple Line

–> Another article on the Purple Line in the Washinton Post: “More Stations, Bigger Welcome for Purple Line Plans” – It’s a much needed PG county counterpoint to a less than enthusiastic Montgomery County-centric article about the potential for more stops. –> Cafritz Meeting tonight, 7PM @ Riverdale Elementary School

Cafritz Workshop 1 recap

June 3rd, 2007  |  by Chris Ellepola  |  published in Cafritz Property

Saturday afternoon saw fruitful initial community input for planning of the potentially large development project at the Cafritz Property (interactive map). A healthy attendance was present along with a violinist and a caricature artist for entertainment. The workshop itself had the vibrant community feel that Cafritz Family hopes to create in its development. **PLEASE NOTE, [...]

Cafritz Workshop Meetings

May 18th, 2007  |  by Chris Ellepola  |  published in Cafritz Property, Events, General College Park

Rumors sometime become reality – or so it seems given the potential redevelopment of the “Cafritz Property” (Developer Website) which we first talked about last month. Public workshop meetings are planned for early June. County councilman Eric Olson and College Park city councilwoman Stephanie Stullich are encouraging meaningful/rigorous public participation at these events. Such preliminary [...]
