TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT

I N S T I T U T E

 
Washington, DC offers an incredible opportunity to learn from the multiple generations of TOD projects that have been designed and built across the region over the past two decades. The city is a living case study, so the conference also included guided walking tours to visit some of the nation's leading TOD projects along the metro system. Participants heard from the leaders who delivered these successful projects, and experience them in person on the tour!

This high level event was of great interest to a wide variety of industries and professionals who work within the field of transit oriented development - both nationally and internationally. Real estate developers, transit agencies, municipal and regional planning departments, urban designers, architects, investors and financiers, policymakers, lawyers, building users, academics, consultants and advocates are all fundamental to the process of designing, building, and bringing life to TODs.

The Wharf is DC's newest TOD - 3 million sq. ft. of vibrant, mixed-use development creating one of the great new waterfronts in America. The project, currently under construction, stretches nearly 1 mile long - lined with cafes, shops, entertainment, living, and working spaces - along a great new boardwalk and marina.  More info
