Where Did the Hunters Woods' Parking Go?
Section of lot temporarily closed for now, but will provide more accessible parking spots when it is completed.
A portion of the parking lot at Hunters Woods Village Center will be off-limits as it undergoes renovation for about the next eight weeks.
The center will lose current parking arrangement on the side of the lot closest to Ledo's Dairy Queen and Reston Community Center.
