Annapolis Towne Centre – Annapolis, Maryland

Isaac Kremer/ January 1, 2020/ Field Notes, Physical, placemaking/ 0 comments

Housing is clustered in two high-rise buildings to one end of the development.

Wide sidewalks and boulevards encourage people to walk through the district.

Landscaping, string lights, and metal posts they are suspended from create a place for people to walk through and jog in the median of the main boulevard.

“Annapolis Towne Centre” wayfinding sign at the entrance creates a distinct district brand and identity.

Might not look like much, but this is actually a speaker installed in the tree well. The use of rounded river rock provides for permeability.

We made one last stop at Zoës Kitchen. This was around the time the franchise was in an aggressive expansion phase. Their use of the QR code to encourage Facebook page likes was unique. By 2023 all of their locations had been closed.
