From the Brochure in Your Hand, to
On-Going Community Efforts, Our
Environment is Paramount.
Gables Takoma Park is committed to a more environmentally
conscious atmosphere. This brochure, for instance, is FSC
Certified. The Forest Stewardship Council represents the
world’s strongest system for guiding forest management
toward responsible outcomes. Applied in over 57 countries
worldwide, it ensures all operations encourage the efficient
use of the forest’s multiple products. Monitoring efforts
secure ongoing conservation plans and promote
restoration of natural forests.
A certain percentage of papers are recycled from used
wood elements and combined with FSC Certified products
in order to reclaim material. Soy-based inks are utilized
during the printing process as an alternative to oil based
inks and a reduced amount of ink is used overall during
the process for responsible conservation.
Fsc certiFied From the forests, to the paper mills, to the printer… Each stage is under the watchful eye of the program. The printer and paper must be FSC certified.
green seal
certiFied Printing papers comprised in the
collateral materials are also Green
Seal Certified. The Green Seal
certification process evaluates paper
production beginning with material
extraction, manufacturing, and ending
with recycling and disposal. This
involves rigorous onsite testing and
ongoing plant visits.

continues at Gables Takoma Park
with resident recycling programs,
education and on-going efforts by
staff and grounds specialists.

histOric charm cOmbined with
eclectic individuality.
The City of Takoma Park was founded in 1883 and was Washington DC’s first planned commuter
suburb. In the early 1900’s, the city was noted for its healthful qualities with a 350 feet elevation
and the clean water supply from Sligo Creek. By the 1960s, the city gained the name of “Azalea
City” for the delicate multi-colored flowers that began to enhance the landscape.
Its rich heritage has attracted a diverse population of writers, musicians and artists. The residents
of Takoma Park usually enjoy community awareness with a host of neighborhood events.
Takoma Park is considered a “sanctuary city” and an official “Tree City, USA”. It is a nuclear-free
zone and has won numerous awards for its recycling program. Historic preservation is important
to the area with focused efforts to maintain Takoma’s colorful past.
Old Takoma is a quaint scenic downtown area with eclectic shops, restaurants and businesses. It
is a picturesque town of unique eateries from around the world. Shops offer a convenient
variety of services. It is not uncommon to enjoy the music of a street festival while searching for
the sweetest apples at the outdoor farmer’s market.
Bordering Takoma is Silver Spring. This community is a
distinctive mix of old and new while undergoing a
significant renaissance with posh shopping,
dining, performance halls and cinemas.
Notable employers include Discovery
Communications world headquarters.
