4 Project Purpose / Goals To develop an innovative, attractive and environmentally sensitive design for the long term renovation of Caroline Freeland Urban Park. To identify opportunities to improve the park as an amenity for the local community while balancing the need to improve connections to the Bethesda Central Business District. To create a memorable and unique open space that provides a cohesive and flexible framework to support passive recreational needs and cultural activities.

5 What is a Facility Plan? This project will develop a facility plan, which includes a 30% level of design, detailed cost estimate, and determination of regulatory feasibility. If approved by the Montgomery County Planning Board, the project will be included in the Department of Parks Capital Improvements Program (CIP) for final design and construction.

6 Park History M-NCPPC acquired the property and built the one-acre park in Named after Caroline Freeland, who was the first female chair of the Maryland-National Capital Park & Planning Commission, which she led from Originally designed to buffer residential communities from commercial development.

7 Master Plan Guidance 2012 Parks Recreation and Open Space Plan (PROS) Maintain high level of service for playgrounds and look at strategic potential to add skate parks and community gardens in South Central area. Provide dog spots, community gardens, skate spots, community space and urban wooded areas where level of service is low. Park should serve as urban buffer park and provide green space that may include landscaping, sitting/picnic areas, play equipment, courts and shelters.

8 Master Plan Guidance 1994 Bethesda CBD Master Plan: Reinforce Bethesda s sense of community by encouraging attractive environments that refer to Bethesda s cultural heritage and emphasize design themes such as garden and cultural district. Enhance the pedestrian environment to provide a diverse and stimulating experience, maximize social interaction and encourage walking. Give special attention to the design of streetscapes. Provide parks and green open spaces that provide visual buffers for residential neighborhoods as well as recreational opportunities. Provide a diverse range of activities in spaces that are safe, visible and perceived as public.

9 Preliminary Program of Requirements Preliminary program elements recommended for Caroline Freeland Park: Community Open Space flexible open space for multi-purpose use. Playground multi-age, integrated with design of new park. Community Garden if requested, integrate compact model with urban park activities. Skate Elements add objects where appropriate, not a dedicated area. Sidewalk/Streetscape Improvements as recommended in Bethesda CBD Master Plan. Seating and/or tables for lunchtime use.

10 Preliminary Program of Requirements Preliminary program elements not recommended for Caroline Freeland Park: Urban Wooded Areas site too small. Skate Park site too small and is too close to homes and library for a dedicated facility. Dog Park site is too small and is too close to homes.
