What is the Annex Long Term Use Study?Annex photo

The Town of Vienna has retained a consultant team led by Kimmel Bogrette Architecture + Site to conduct a land feasibility and community needs assessment of long term uses for the Annex property at 301 Center Street S. The study will provide recommended land uses based on the Town's strategic plan, comprehensive plan, extensive community engagement and available funding.

We encourage you to help the Town understand community perspectives and unmet needs as we chart the course for this site's future by completing the Community Perspective Questionnaire and attending the Community Workshops, details below.

The Department of Parks & Recreation staff members are managing this project with leadership from Town Council.  The Town desires to have a strong, collaborative process among community members, Council, staff and the consultant team.

Annex Background 

In September 2020, the Town of Vienna purchased Faith Baptist Church, located at 301 Center Street S.  Since purchasing the three-acre property, the Town refers to it as the Annex.  From 2020 to 2022, the Vienna Police Department temporarily occupied the Annex while the new police station was constructed at 215 Center St. S. 

Before the Town engaged in the future use of the Annex, the Town conducted a study to determine the cost to improve the building for public recreation activities.   The cost to make improvements was assessed at $1 million.  

With the Annex currently unoccupied, the Town is working to gather community input and study the site's next phase to determine what to do with the Annex in the next decade and beyond.  The study will help inform the Town’s decision about the property in the short term.
