Spring in the DC area is one of my favorites seasons. There is something about the light green on the trees of the parkways and streets, the hustle and bustle of restaurants getting ready for outdoor dining and a newness in the air that says to me: “wake up, there’s a new year and new opportunities headed our way.” It’s exciting!
More. More new buildings and developments in our future such as the Boro. It’s really awesome when you think of it. We asked Keith to bring us some thoughts on the plans and the opportunities for housing, dining, and developments in retail, entertainment, and workspace. As we put our publication to bed, there is more talk of the proposed “View at Tysons” by Clemente Development rising up 48 stories with approx 840,000 sq ft. of condos, 412,000 sq. ft of Hotel Space and 44,000 sq ft of retail. Stay tuned!
