The first phase of the 3.1M SF Parks at Walter Reed broke ground last month, and now the development's town center is beginning to come into focus.

The town center will be built along 12th Street NW between Elder and Dahlia streets on the site of the former hospital. The corner of 12th and Dalia streets has an anchor space set aside for a grocery store. The development team tried and failed to secure Wegmans to anchor the project.
