TF Cornerstone has submitted a rezoning application approved by the Board of Supervisors for the Campus Commons project near Wiehle Metro station.
This development will be the first large-scale project to directly abut longtime residential neighborhoods of single-family houses and low-rise townhomes, making it precedent-setting. It will add 649 new households, and according to the developer's traffic impact study, it will add 6,100 new car trips onto Sunrise Valley each day.
However, the developer's project does not meet many aspects of our Reston Master Plan and planning process. Moreover, the community continues to voice significant concerns over building height and scale, pedestrian safety, traffic congestion, and impact on our stressed infrastructure, among other issues. The Reston Planning and Zoning Committee declined to approve this project twice but the Fairfax Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors approved after the community gained several modifications from the developer.
