Greater College Park

College Park is booming. Nearly 20 projects, including The Hotel at the University of Maryland, four new academic buildings, and new downtown amenities, are underway. The boom -- called Greater College Park -- is the result of cooperative work between the city, county, state, private developers and the University.

Excellent video to see the new and exciting things coming to the University of Maryland. So proud of my fellow Terps and so proud to still be a part of the UMD community. I've welcomed UMD students to intern with me for the past 12 years. :) Go Terps! Roblyn Hymes, Class of 1982.

Wow! I can’t even recognize the area anymore! Good job terps! 👌🏼 I miss it so much!

A dynamic and exciting vision. I am glad to see more of a focus on the arts, but also sad to see the tear down of our beloved Little Tavern highlighted, which was a key piece of generations' of night life in College Park. Let's all work together to balance the development of an organic, creative community with the large-scale commercial development. (UMD '88)

I grew up in C. P.. I enjoyed hanging at Terrapin bar until it closed in June, 1999. Now that live in Florida, I missed it.

As long as they don't get rid of Bagel Place, I'm good.

Does this university have dorms?

[@abbiec2.089]

agreed

[@ryanhegarty2936]

I definitely prefer Turtle Town over that name

[@StephenFerber]

I Love the Project and Think it is a Great Step Forward, but I do Believe we Need to Keep the Maryland Golf Course in Tact! It is a Real Differentiator and will Complement all the New Brick and Mortar.

Applause!!!!!

FEAR the Turtle Town! :)

Purple line is a huge mistake!

[@corinmasters5477]

Look, this conceptually these are great themes. However, the introductory video is nauseating, as it is so blatantly commercial that it seems the sop to "creativity" is cheap and transparently fake. It broke my heart to see the promotion of target express as a great new idea RIGHT NEXT TO video of the destruction of the little tavern (an abandoned restaurant) , a place where there was huge creativity in my time at CP. This has to be a human scale project for it to work.
