Vision unveiled for comprehensive redevelopment of Towson

An expert team of architects, engineers, planners and transportation specialists on Tuesday unveiled suggestions for a comprehensive redevelopment in Towson that blended the practical ? traffic safety and improved public spaces ? with the artistic.

Members of the county-sponsored Urban Design Assistance Team presented ideas to about 200 residents in their makeshift studio, the culmination of months of planning and a week of brainstorming with residents. Proposed changes are concentrated in Towson?s epicenter along York Road and include narrowing the busy road to one lane in each direction with parallel parking on either side.
