Tysons in Context
Tysons West is the first phase of an MV+A designed master plan for a 16 acre site strategically located across from the Spring Hill metro stop. Situated at Route 7 and the Dulles Toll Road, the site helps form a western gateway to Tysons Corner. The project includes the reuse and adaptive reuse of an existing parking garage as well as the addition of 104,000 square feet of retail, a 48,000 square foot fitness center, and a 29,000 square foot office tower.
It was planned and designed with two objectives in mind: to continue the upscale look of Tysons Corner—a nationally recognized retail address—and to set the design standard for future phases. A series of streetscapes, plazas, and walkways will be created for a pedestrian oriented shopping and entertainment experience. Toward that end, access to a concealed parking garage was carefully integrated into the streetscape, and a vibrant street façade has been created.
