Work on a $53 million seven-story parking garage has begun in Woodbridge.
The 1,400-space Neabsco Parking Garage will sit between Sentara Northern Virginia Medical Center and Stonebridge at Potomac Town Center (Wegman’s grocery store).
Prince William County officials plan a groundbreaking ceremony for the project at 1:30 p.m. Friday, March 17, 2023. The garage was supposed to be built with a minor-league baseball stadium.
In 2018, the Potomac Nationals baseball team struck a deal with Fredericksburg and moved the team from Prince William to the city.
The county is moving ahead with the project despite losing the team. Operators of the Interstate 95 E-ZPass Express Lanes will build a new ramp from the toll lanes to Opitz Boulevard, making it easier for northbound drivers to exit the highway and park in the garage.
Prince William County Transportation Director Rick Canizales tells us:
The Parking Garage is a Design-Build project. We are currently clearing and grading the site as design is finalized. We started this part earlier this year.
In a Design-Build project you can do phases of a project in parallel, so we will continue to finalize the plans and get needed right-of-way, as we move forward with construction on approved portions of the plan where right-of-way is not needed, such as the area where the actual building will stand.
The project is expected to be fully completed by the Spring/Summer of 2024 (depending on weather).
Brew Republic Bierwerks, a craft brewery that closed in October 2022 after a water pipe burst and flood damage, is set to re-open in its existing location in Stonebridge at Potomac Town Center retail shopping area. The brewery hosted its grand reopening event on Saturday, March 4, 2023.
Montclair resident and former elected official Jeff Frederick and his team have been working tirelessly to rebuild the brewery that originally opened in September 2016, and now, after nearly four months.
Brew Republic features an in-house, state-of-the-art 10-barrel brewing system, along with a spacious bar, a roomy tap room seating area, indoor/outdoor biergarten seating, and a kitchen.
The beer is crafted by Brewmaster (Minister of Beer) Scott Kirk to echo local, regional, and national tastes and trends, and is billed as “something for everyone.”
Brew Republic Bierwerks, LLC is a veteran-owned small business originally opened in 2015. We brew our hand-crafted ales and lagers in 10-barrel batches at our 4,000-square-foot facility in the Stonebridge at Potomac Town Center in Woodbridge.
The show will be on display from February 1 - February 26, 2023, at the Open Space Arts Gallery at Stonebridge in Potomac Town Center. The exhibition is meant to showcase artwork surrounding African American Heritage, life, culture, and experiences.
Artists are invited to showcase how they would interpret different creative works in music, poetry, and monologues from different historical figures. All mediums are welcome based on the subject matter and historical figures named in the descriptive information below. All mediums of visual art are welcome. The collection selected for display will be curated by the Arts Recreation Specialist of Prince William County, Herb Williams.
