The Prince George’s County Planning Board is scheduled April 30 to hear Greystar’s proposal for a 343-unit develoment near the intersection of Baltimore Avenue and Knox Road in College Park.
The project was first revealed in a preliminary plan application in September, but new planning board filings include renderings that show how the project is expected to take shape and the visibility it will have from College Park’s main Baltimore Avenue corridor.
The development will require the demolition of a series of long-standing College Park retailers, including Marathon Deli, Krazi Kebob, Café Hookah, Kevin Nails, Lotsa Pizza and Insomnia Cookies. It will leave standing the Potbelly’s, Nando’s Peri-Peri and the Baltimore Avenue retailers between them, plus the Terrapin Turf bar on Knox Road.
