A developer is moving forward with plans to build affordable homes in Tysons Central with the support of Fairfax County’s housing authority.
Lincoln Avenue Communities submitted a rezoning application to the county last Wednesday (Oct. 7) seeking to amend previously approved plans for the neighborhood to allow two “all-affordable” high-rises totaling 525 homes on a currently vacant site near the Greensboro Metro station.
More housing could be coming to the partially finished Tysons Central neighborhood outside the Greensboro Metro station, but it will take a slightly different form than what developers pictured over a decade ago.
The Fairfax County Redevelopment and Housing Authority (FCRHA) has partnered with the developer Lincoln Avenue Communities to acquire a long-vacant lot near the Tysons water tower and turn it into affordable housing.
