Bahai Followers Plan First Center in Northern Virginia; Work to Begin Soon on 18,000-Square-Foot Sterling Facility
|
Followers of the Bahai faith plan to begin construction this
summer on their first center in Northern Virginia, an 18,000-square-
foot building in Sterling that would serve the religious and
community needs of more than 1,000 people.
The region's 18 Bahai communities now hold events at a smaller
center in Washington or in private homes or rented space. The three-
story, cylindrical center, to be built on 2 1/2 acres at the corner
of Route 7 and Cardinal Glen Circle, could accommodate all of them
with its 400-seat auditorium, numerous classrooms, a bookstore and
possibly a coffee shop.
