One little task force has a lot resting on its shoulders — just about all of Tysons Corner, actually.
With an extension of Metrorail slated to run through the heart of the urban center, the Tysons Land Use Task Force is charged with drawing up the future vision for the area. It’s no small task; developers and landowners are eagerlyanticipating the aboveground four-mile track’s construction, seeking to take advantage of the heavier growth that can be clustered around the four new stations. Before the task force was formed, 20 rail-related land-use proposals that would take up a large portion of Tysons’ land mass were put on hold, pending the completion of the group’s work.
