MARC Station Design Drawn Up for Frederick Creekside Site
Frederick Historic District Commission reviewed the first renderings of a 1,800 square foot MARC train station near Carroll Creek Water Street. Architect Harvey W Goolsby showcased a brick building with an eight foot overhang and imitation slate roof intended for civic use and a small retail vendor, but commissioners warned it looked too historical and suburban. They urged changes to detailing to avoid a restoration look while preserving a slim green setting amid mid rise development.
