Preliminary Plan

Below is one conceptual plan for  how the Ribbon Park might be laid out. Light green areas are the ribbon park proposal on Mason property. Darker green areas are easements to connect the properties to each other  and to Fairfax Villa Park (County) and Providence Park (Fairfax City).
