Town Commons

In the tradition of the old town square where residents would gather and trade, the proposed Town Commons will serve as an outdoor home for festivals and other public events. Bordered by the Norfolk Southern railway line on the south, this district will wrap around the Government Town Center and together creates Oakwood’s future central business district. A traffic roundabout will connect the two districts. The Town Commons also features two large town greens, numerous ponds and fountains, a proposed new Post Office, and an outdoor amphitheatre – flanked by downtown shops and offices of traditional Southern architecture.
