The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission, Prince George’s County Planning Department, Community Planning Division has initiated a project through the Planning Assistance to Municipalities and Communities (PAMC) program to identify and design streetscape improvements along MD 704 (Martin Luther King Jr. Highway) within the limits of the City of Seat Pleasant. In 2012, the Maryland State Highway Administration (MDOT-SHA) awarded a project to construct a road diet along MD 704 (Martin Luther King Jr. Highway) from Eastern Avenue/Washington, D.C. Line to Hill Road under contract number PG6995176. The MDOT-SHA project reduced the number of through lanes from three to two in each direction from Addison Road (South) to west of Hill Road. Through the limits of the lane reduction, a seven-foot-median shoulder was established with pavement markings in each direction. The PAMC project seeks to repurpose the additional marked median space and utilize available right-of-way to better accommodate all modes of transportation. This report describes the goals, history, and recommendations for the MD 704 (Martin Luther King Jr. Highway) Streetscape Enhancement project. This project was funded through the PAMC program administered by the Prince George’s County Planning Department.

This document is a compilation of free black entries in the federal censuses for Prince George’s County, Maryland from 1790 to 1860. It was prepared by The Ottery Group, Inc., as part of a contract with The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission, Prince George’s County Planning Department, to document the history of antebellum plantations. Entries from each census year have been tabulated; each table is unique to a particular census year. The purpose of this document is to assist researchers focusing on the historically small, but significant, free black population in the county. If used in combination with other primary historical records such as maps, land records, tax records, etc., these tables represent a useful tool for genealogical and historical research, as well as for locating the physical remnants of the lives of the free blacks across the landscape of Prince George’s County in the pre-civil war era.

This document also makes recommendations to implement the Master Plan during the ongoing planning and regulatory process. The Sectional Map Amendment section describes zoning changes which are designed to implement the Plans land use recommendations.

This document contains maps and supporting text of the adopted Langley Park-College Park-Greenbelt Master Plan. The Plan will supersede the 1970 College Park-Greenbelt Master Plan, the 1965 Plan for Hillandale and Vicinity, the 1963 Master Plan for Takoma Park-Langley Park and Vicinity, and the 1973 Special Treatment Area Plan for U.S. Route I, College Park.

Developed by the Commission with the assistance of the Langley Park-College Park-Greenbelt Citizens’ Advisory Committee, this Plan discusses the history and existing plans of the area, and analyzes population, employment, housing, land use and zoning characteristics. The Plan sets forth goals, objectives, background/basis issues, concepts, recommendations and guidelines for each of the eight major clements: Historic Preservation; Environmental Envelope; Living Areas; Housing; Commercial Areas and Activity Centers; Employment Areas; Circulation and Transportation; and Public Facilities. Protection of the area’s residential character is a prime concern. The potential for further economic development is examined, including the impact of the Metrorail Green Line service in the vicinity of the College Park and Greenbelt Metro Stations. A retail market analysis was prepared in order to assess the provision of existing retail space, and the present and future need for various types of retail uses in the Planning Area. Activity centers are proposed as focal points for social and commercial activities. This document makes specific recommendations to implement the Master Plan during the ongoing planning and regulatory process. The “Comprehensive Rezoning” Chapter proposes extensive zoning changes which are designed to implement the land use recommendations. These detailed zoning proposals will be contained within the comprehensive Sectional Map Amendment following approval of this Plan.
