...about the possibility of a new cohousing community in Takoma Park,
Maryland?

IMAGINE . an energy-efficient, green and sustainable community walking
distance to the Takoma Red Line metro .

. affordable .

. diverse .

. urban .

IMAGINE . being a part of bringing this new possibility to life .

Cool.

EcoHousing Corporation, developer of Takoma Village in Washington, DC and
Eastern Village, in Silver Spring, Maryland is proposing a new cohousing
community on a site owned by The City of Takoma Park, Maryland. 

The City is currently soliciting proposals for developing the surface
parking lot located to the west of the Takoma Park-Silver Spring Coop.

EcoHousing, one of several developers submitting proposals for the site,
envisions a mixed-use development consisting of commercial/retail on the
ground floor with 36-40 units of cohousing on the 3rd and 4th floors. As
with its first two cohousing communities, the building will be
energy-efficient, green, and sustainable. The site is walkable to the Takoma
Red Line metro along with frequent Ride-On bus service. And, of course, the
biggest draw: it's cohousing in funky, nuclear-free zone, "Azalea City"
Takoma Park!

The developers, Don Tucker and Bruce Levin, are interested in meeting you
and finding out if there is a viable contingent of folks who want to live in
cohousing at this location. 

Want to learn more?

Come to either of two information sessions on Sunday, May 4th, 3-5 p.m. or
Saturday,  May 10th, 11 a-1p.  PLEASE SIGN UP ON THE MEET UP AT:

http://www.meetup.com/washington-dc-area-cohousing


The developers will have visuals available. You will have an opportunity to
ask questions, meet other community-minded folks and discuss how this new
community could be brought into being.

The information session is FREE. Light refreshments served. Sign up on the
Meet Up.

Questions? Email: TakomaJunction [at] Ecohousing.net

Bring friends, relatives, co-workers . all welcome!

NOTE:  both sessions will cover the same information.  You only need to
attend one session.

Again, please sign up via the Meet Up:
http://www.meetup.com/washingon-dc-area-cohousing.

Thanks!
