NAIOP Breakfast Panel: The Transformation of the Richmond Highway Corridor
|
On October 20, NAIOP Northern Virginia will present a breakfast seminar focused on the revitalization of the Richmond Highway corridor.
With the combination of growth extending south from Alexandria and the Metro Yellow Line/Huntington Station; thousands of new jobs relocating to Fort Belvoir; and the demand for space, dramatic new development is occurring in this area. To accommodate future growth, Fairfax County has initiated Embark Richmond Highway, a comprehensive process to re-plan the corridor to accommodate the extension of Metrorail. Our panel will provide a historical overview of the area, and discuss the current and future transformation of the region.
