Project Scope
The Façade Restoration and Infrastructure Improvement Program will consist of a strategy to visually restore and improve the physical image of the entire Marlboro Pike Commercial Corridor within the corporate limits of the City of District Heights. The restoration process will be completed in two (2) phases (pending on the project budget). The two phases are as follows:
