Boswell's Corner Redevelopment Area

Click HERE to see the Boswell's Corner Redevelopment Vision

Oppurtunity: 

Boswell's Corner is an economic opportunity area in Stafford County, that is about 1 mile south of the New Marine Corps Heritage Museum, and located along US-1, adjacent to Marine Corps Base Quantico and I-95.  The future personnel growth of Quantico, as mandated by the Base Realignment and Closure Commission (BRAC) Report and the corresponding growth in the defense contractor network supporting the base, will necessitate the addition of office space in the area.  The Director of Quantico Public Affairs, John Roswarne, has stated that the BRAC 2005 movements will result in the need for at lease 650,000-750,000 sq ft of new office space  on Quantico alone by 2011.

 

Potential:

Currently, Boswell's Corner is an underutilized area with sparse and varied businesses and vacant lots.  This condition has the potential to support needed commercial growth.  However, in an unplanned environment, such anticipated intense development at Boswell's Corner could occur in a haphazard manner resulting in isolated or fragmented development.

The rendering, shown above created as a visioning document, shows an example of what could be created in this area.  This vision, if realized could spur economic growth, by providing a positive initial impression to visitors and  an inviting pedestrian environment for workers by connecting complexes and encouraging collaboration.Through County structuring of land use and design regulations and private sector participation, we can provide necessary space for commercial development and create a vibrant business community anchor for Stafford County.
