AGENDA

INTRODUCTION & COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

1. Position and define development in National Landing within its regional and community context.

2. Establish a series of goals to guide the future programming and design of parks.

3. Create a framework and methodology for park programming.

4. Provide a comparison of park area and proposed program to the existing Crystal City Sector Plan (2010).

5. Develop program recommendations for each of the initial park spaces given the relative location and site geometry, including Crystal Park, 23rd Street Plaza, Center Park, Metro Market Square, and Gateway Park.

7. Serve as an updated reference point and holistic guide to reflect the current economic circumstances and community input for future planning and design processes, including Arlington County Site Plan Review Committee.

Sector Plan Program FrequencyOne of the functions of the National Landing Open Space

Framework Plan is to ensure that the programming

and spatial allowances for park space in the Crystal

City Sector Plan (2010) are maintained and improved

upon as part of the regeneration of the neighborhood.

The plan looks to implement the Sector Plan’s

recommendations on program components while

adapting these recommendations to past, present, and

future development patterns across National Landing.

The National Landing Open Space Framework Plan seeks

to integrate all of the programmatic recommendations

of the Sector Plan, even as the continued evolution of

the site since 2010 has influenced the exact location of

certain program elements in order to fit into current and

future development trends.

The Crystal City Sector Plan proscribes approximately

8.74 acres of public open space spread across 14

parks within the study area. Refer to the figures on

the opposite page for a comparison of the open space

located within the overlap area between the JBG Smith

National Landing Open Space Framework Plan study area

and the Sector Plan.

PARK TYPOLOGIES

Civic Park:

larger, highly visible parks that serve a

civic role in the community

Pocket Parks: smaller, more intimate parks typically

defined by built edges

Nature Parks: Pastoral in character and provide intense

contact to nature

Gateway Parks: Situated at key entry points and serve to

give identity to place

CRYSTAL PARK

Feedback Summary:

What we heard :

• “Provide active recreation at Crystal Park – gym stations and volleyball courts have been important and

makes for a great opportunity to add more.”

• “Needs to be more green, whether for recreation or just hanging out.”

• “Crystal Park would be a great way to achieve active rec programming; no strong dislikes or objections.”

• “Existing park gets lots of use for working out and active recreation; keeping these program elements seems wise”

• “Active recreation should stay at Crystal Park.”

• “Outdoor exercise amenities, volleyball courts, playground; they’re there now, don’t place them elsewhere.” (website feedback)

• “It is important to plan the connection between Greenway Park and Crystal Park.”

• “Additional sanitation and trash cans would be useful.”

• “Provide playground program.”

• “I think that quiet, beautiful garden spaces are badly needed in this neighborhood.” (website feedback)

1. Active recreational programming

2. Soften with landscape

3. Preserve potential to connect to

future Greenway

23RD STREET PLAZA

• “23rd Street is hidden today, wish it was more active and had more people.”

• “Program and typology should ultimately depend on how the buildings are positioned

around the park and what the building uses are.“

• “Flexible seating, water feature or public art and small gathering spcae; if enough room,

also a small nature garden.” (website feedback)

• “Concern that it will be difficult for this park to function as a gateway park as it may not be visible

from Richmond Highway.”

• “Covered trellis, flexible seating, and seating niches.” (website, most preferred program)

1. Pocket park, neighborhood oriented

2. Strengthen visibility of park

3. Needs to be active

4. Final adjacent use will clarify park programming

CENTER PARK

• “Art and sculptural elements would be good and a flexible lawn space,

but like the added possibilities for what could be in it.”

• “Great location, but it is completely dead. Since it is going to be connected to Crystal Drive,

there is potential for a theater environment and events.

• “Event space, central lawn, water feature” (website, most preferred program)

• “Center Park – may not be appropriate as a civic space if the size and area do not reflect what is shown in the Sector Plan.”

• “Screen on the Green at Center Park – movies in the park.”

• “Gateway and Center Parks are meant as spaces to walk through. The parks need something to make people want to linger, use and

experience the park.”

• “Keep it simple and green and develop closely with the residential towers below... Lots of trees please and interesting seating.” (website)

1. Underutilized space lacking an attractor

2. Need for programmable space

3. Flexible lawn

METRO MARKET SQUARE

Feedback Summary:

• “Design for the farmers market program.”

• “Avoid over programming the parks, particularly at Metro Market Square where there will be heavy transit

use and pedestrian movement.”

• “Like what is proposed for Metro Market Square.”

• “It’s actually transit-oriented at both ends because of the new Metro entrance... so pedestrian travel will be

huge throughout these spaces” (website feedback)

• “Use park as a way to handle heavy pedestrian traffic from Metro to Crystal Drive; this will make Farmers

market and other events in this space more successful.”

• “Metro Market Square today is a harsh “non-human” environment, like standing on top a fortress. Need to

provide a mix of uses and green space.”

• “Provide proper signage.”

• “Provide a mix of uses and green space”

• “Like the differentiated program and experience”

• “Gateway Park should be a passive program, specifically no active uses.”

• “Keep quiet and passive; no band shell, which would be better suited to Water Park.”

• “If we will be encouraging performances, should be mindful of nearby residents.”

• “Do not need additional event and gaming spaces as there are plenty of these types of spaces available.”

• “Active recreation does not make sense at Gateway Park given proximity to recreational amenities at Long Bridge Park.”

• “Nature path is important. Needs more seating. The band shell program could go in Water Park.”

• “Preserve mature trees and provide more useable green space. Nature typology classification limited by railroad ROW.”

• “Lawn and nature elements are important. Provide more seating. Like band shell idea.”

• “The band shell should be studied further in coordination with event organizers and bands who have played in Crystal City before and

see what their specific needs/suggestions are.”

• “Flexibility in parks is desirable; Long Bridge and Gateway Park have been popular during pandemic as a place for people to gather with

each other and bring their own tents, blankets, games, etc.”

1. Passive recreation

2. Strengthen connection to nature

3. Additional seating

4. Review performance space requirements

5. Flexibility during COVID-19
