🌿 NECC Site Plan Development

The Nepal Education and Cultural Center (NECC) is transforming its Germantown property into a vibrant cultural, spiritual, and community hub.
Our Site Plan Development Project is a multi-phase effort to renovate historic buildings, add new facilities,
and create welcoming spaces for worship, learning, and gathering.

This project ensures that our growing community has a sustainable home for future generations while preserving the historic significance of the property.
