Transforming Tysons: Rendering of Station Street, as part of the Scotts Run Station South master plan.

Fairfax County:
“SmithGroupJJR was awarded a 2013 Award of Excellence by the Northern Virginia chapter of National Association of Industrial and Office Parks (NAIOP), a commercial real estate development association, for its planning and design of the Scotts Run Station South master plan. The NAIOP awards program, which celebrates significant contributions to Northern Virginia by the commercial, industrial and mixed-use real estate community, was held on Nov. 30, 2013 at the Ritz-Carlton, Tysons Corner. Scotts Run Station South won the award for ‘Best Master Plan.’

With the planned arrival of four new Metrorail stations, the community of Tysons Corner has an exceptional redevelopment opportunity. SmithGroupJJR’s master plan for Cityline Partners’ properties at the new Tysons/McLean station will transform the area into a transit-oriented, mixed-use community with the Scotts Run Stream Valley Park at its heart. The development plan introduces a new pedestrian-scaled grid of streets with an engaging mix of uses along Station Street, the development’s main avenue. A total of 17 new buildings are planned, including residential, office and retail uses along with a full-service hotel.”
