The Purple Line Corridor Coalition is pleased to release its 2024 End of Year Report.
Just two months into 2025, we are grappling with a time of unprecedented uncertainty and fear in our communities. At PLCC, we are taking this time to reflect on the ways we have pivoted and pushed forward in other unprecedented times — from lawsuits to work stoppages to a global pandemic. Although the challenges we face now are different, and the reality is still unfolding, we know two things: hope is a muscle, and the only way forward is through. Please read on for some updates from our network. We look forward to being in community with you in 2025.
The Purple Line Corridor Coalition is pleased to release its 2023 End of Year Report.
Progress in 2023: There was much progress made along the Purple Line Corridor in 2023 — including equitable development beyond the light rail tracks. Take a look at PLCC’s End of Year Report to see what we and a few of our partners have been up to. We are grateful to the people, organizations, agencies, and sponsors who made this progress possible!
We look forward to more progress toward our goals in 2024.
Join the Purple Line Corridor Coalition for a fall happy hour! This is an informal opportunity to connect in-person with organizations, agencies, and neighbors working for equitable change in Purple Line communities. We’re hoping to use this opportunity to expand our network, so please bring a friend or colleague who might be interested in joining the PLCC network!
Where? Alegria Food Court, 1535 University Blvd E, Langley Park, MD
*Attending the event is free, but food and drink are at your own expense. Meals range from $15-25

The Purple Line Equitable Transit-Oriented Development Strategy is the product of a two-year planning process funded by a transit-oriented development planning grant from the Federal Transit Administration. The report includes strategies for affordable housing, small business preservation, safe pedestrian/bicycle access to stations, and inclusive economic growth.
