Plans advance for Silver Spring transit center

WMATA logo

In my own Silver Spring, Maryland, plans advance for a new transit center. The current arrangement combines a bus terminal and a Metro station to make one of the busiest transit centers in the area. The bus bay is quite overloaded, as is apparent to anybody who watches the buses back up there during rush hours. There's also a lot of potential there for air development.

Silver Spring Scene thinks the new transit center is a disaster in the making--unambitious, incohesive, and lacking mixed uses. His writeup is very thorough and worth reading. There is lively debate in the comments too.
