Visions for Vacancies: Towson Triangle

A panel of business owners and community members is trying to figure out what to do about the triangle. Let's give them some ideas.

 

Local officials and community leaders point to the Towson Triangle, the block formed by York Road, Towsontown Boulevard and Burke Avenue, as the missing link in downtown Towson.

Currently, the triangle includes the Towson University Marriott Conference Hotel, Starbucks, Dunkin' Donuts, a new sushi spot, the American Legion and several pizza shops.

Much of the area is vacant or undeveloped, however. Several vacant buildings in the triangle were demolished last year. And the stretch of York Road is not as inviting to pedestrians as residents and business owners would like it to be.

A county panel is trying to come up with plans for the triangle. Give them some ideas to get going.
