West Falls Church TOD Neighborhood Destination
Our approach to this placemaking commission began with our understanding of the client's goals. Out team conducted historic research of Falls Church and its past resident of note to uncover many unique contributions that led to a branding strategy. We crafted the main public space, “The Commons” to be a scalable activation hub that has the ability to flex in size for various programmed events while allowing vehicular access to all parking resources for customers and residents alike. An extensive mural program on building facades further reinforces the branding message and story of the placemaking environment.
