STATION CONCEPTS

  • Several themes have been heard consistently :

– The Metro station should sit lightly in the landscape – The Metro station should be complementary to its surroundings (Potomac Yard, Potomac Greens, and the George Washington Memorial Parkway) – The Metro station design should minimize the visibility of the station from the Parkway – The Metro station design should take advantage of views from inside the station

  • Based on these themes, which concept best

achieves the objectives outlined above and why?

and why?

  • Which elements of Option 1B do you prefer and why?
  • Are there elements of Option 1B that you would remove

and why?
