Check out the White Oak News September 2018 issue HERE with the latest related to the White Oak Science Gateway Master Plan!

One of my top priorities since joining the Council in 2009 was accelerating the White Oak Science Gateway Master Plan so this project could move forward. In 2015, after much deliberation and public comments, the Council voted in favor of Resolution 18-195 to dispose of Site II Property on Industrial Parkway in Silver Spring to partner with a private developer to create a “vibrant, mixed-use, transit-oriented” life science village that was envisioned in the White Oak Science Gateway Master Plan.

The White Oak Science Gateway Master Plan seeks to leverage the many assets in the White Oak area and establish the foundation upon which the area may evolve into a community that offers more opportunities to learn, live, work and play. The Plan also envisions the commercial centers will evolve from conventional, auto-dependent suburban shopping retail centers, business parks and light industrial areas into vibrant, mixed-use, transit-served nodes.
