Owners of the tennis barns at Greenspring Station have taken the first step in the process of redeveloping the tennis barns. They plan to remove one tennis barn and convert that space into additional surface parking. The other barn will be replaced with a wellness center and 3-story office building. The plan also calls for another 5,000 square feet of retail space to be located in front of the existing shops. They have filed for a traffic variance, which is required due to the failing intersections in the immediate vicinity.
The VPC and other community groups have continued to ask the owners of the property for a master plan that describes plans for any potential future development. The community feels strongly that any redevelopment of the site must not exacerbate existing traffic and environmental problems and believes that a comprehensive plan for the entire site is the practical and responsible way to go.
