Abstract
Page County has a 10-acre undeveloped parcel located in the Town of Luray limits. This gateway parcel has frontage off of HWY 211 going east toward Shenandoah National Park and Route 340 South into the Luray’s Main Street downtown district.
This highly visible parcel has potential to address several community-based initiatives, such as increased access to public open space, fresh and healthy food, and opportunities for outdoor exercise and better pedestrian connectivity. Nearby assets that this parcel can connect to in Luray are some of Virginia’s most popular attractions, including the Luray Caverns and the Shenandoah National Park in addition to the well-known and highly successful Luray Hawksbill Greenway.
