Montgomery County plans to build this 1200 car parking garage along Georgia Avenue in Glenmont.
           It will be next to the west side
residential neighborhood in the green space north of the  Metro station.

  • It will visually dominate Glenmont:                           

  • Length, 350 feet; longer than a football field.

  • Height, 65 feet (six levels) of parking and 75 foot towers; plus lights on poles..

  • Width, 185 feet; wider than a football field.

  • Beside its negative impact, this garage will harm the Glenmont residential area by bringing 1200 more
    commuters cars to Glenmont, clogging  neighborhood roads, and causing more air pollution.
