The City of Alexandria and Hilco will hold a second public meeting on April 29th at 6 p.m. to discuss the Old Town North Small Area Plan. The plan will guide redevelopment of the former power plant and includes multiple connections to the Mount Vernon Trail, including construction of a parallel pedestrian trail.

From the press release:
On Thursday, April 29 at 6 p.m., the City of Alexandria will host the second in a series of virtual community meetings regarding the transformation of the Potomac River Generating Site (PRGS) in the Old Town North. The City and the HRP Alexandria team are committed to engaging the community and obtaining feedback on this project and are working together to facilitate the best possible process during this challenging time. In-person community meetings will supplement online engagement throughout this process when public gatherings are again permitted.
The meeting will focus on reviewing the 2017 Old Town North Small Area Plan (OTN SAP), which includes a framework for redevelopment on the site. Hilco Redevelopment Partners will also provide an update on implementation efforts since the Plan’s adoption.
