Supervisors To Hear Tysons, Transportation Issues

The board could vote on Captial One's HQ expansion Tuesday.

The Fairfax County Board of Supervisors is expected to deliberate Tuesday over the expansion of Capital One's corporate headquarters in Tysons Corner, a plan forwarded by the Planning Commission last week.

The company has 26 acres in Tysons and has proposed a massive redevelopment of the area, including 3.1 million square feet of office space, 100,000 square feet of restaurants and retail, a hotel and four residential apartment buildings. 

According to the Washington Post, construction could begin in 2013 if approved. The company has also agreed to construct a community center with an indoor basketball court.

The board is also scheduled to authorize the county’s transportation department to apply for $10 million from the VDOT FY2014 Revenue Sharing Program.

In the program, the commonwealth would match funding the County has already designated towards the project. If the application were approved, $10 million would be available to the county for other transportation needs.
