Sidewalk Construction Underway at The Common!

Beginning this week, the northern entrance near the Performance Hall will be closed for approximately seven days while that section of sidewalk is completed and the concrete cures.

The main entrance to The Common remains open, and all programs and activities are continuing as scheduled.

Once work on the northern entrance is complete, construction will move to the main entrance. We’ll keep you updated as the project progresses.

Thanks for your patience as this exciting improvement to our campus and the Arlington community moves forward!
