Metro to Sell Surplus Property in Prince George’s County with Potential for Development
The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (“Metro”) has announced that certain surplus properties in the Washington, D.C. metro area are available for sale. These properties have the potential to be developed for commercial, residential, or mixed-use purposes. Each property is near or adjacent to Metro stations and therefore has valuable transit accessibility. Four surplus properties are located in Prince George’s County and are listed below:
Baltimore Avenue, College Park, MD
- Parcel is located at the intersection of Baltimore Avenue and Albion Road and adjoins the Riverdale Park Station residential and retail complex anchored by Whole Foods
Southern Avenue Metro Station Parcels, Temple Hills, MD

Branch Avenue Metro Station, Suitland, MD
- Parcel is across the street from the Branch Avenue Metro Station on the Green Line
In the next two years, Metro indicates it will continue evaluating its land holdings and may provide additional properties for sale.
