Long-time residents may remember the dukes-of-hazard-style drunken leap from north-bound sterling boulevard that took out the center of our western (Bahai-side) entrance wall back in 2007, and observant new-comers may have noticed the off-color mortar of the repairs.IMG 4753

unfortunately a 2-car accident this morning around 7am sent one of the cars into the same wall…the suv clipped the right rear of the car before careening into our wall…fortunately no one seems to have been hurt:-)

Briar Patch Park To Be Refurbished

contractor, loudoun county, maintenance, ontheboulevard

Our district supervisor Koran Saines informs us that the Gwen Thompson Briar Patch Park will be closed for up to four months starting on Tuesday October 9. Given the extent of the project, County staff determined it would be better to complete it all at once, necessitating the closure.

The extensive construction project includes milling and resurfacing tennis and basketball courts, trails and the parking lot, replacing a retaining wall and fencing, replacing a playground and surrounding surfaces, repairing drainage areas and enhancing access areas. These changes will complete work that began a couple years ago to update the park. At the end of this project the park will be better and more enjoyable for Sterling children and families.
