On March 30, 2023, Montgomery Parks held a community meeting to unveil the revised design concept for the future Lyttonsville Neighborhood Park, featuring a Bridge Memorial constructed from the girders of the historic Talbot Avenue Bridge (1918–2019). The bridge served as a connection between the once racially segregated communities of Lyttonsville and North Woodside. Last fall, local civic groups, including the North Woodside Citizens Association, sent a letter to Montgomery Parks advocating to incorporate the girders in a way that re-creates a sense of the bridge. For more information about the future park, including many more images of the design concept, visit the park’s website.
To join community advocacy efforts for the future park, contact the Talbot Avenue Bridge Committee.
