The Fairfax County Department of Transportation is making progress on the design of a street that will provide a new connection between Tysons East and Pimmit Hills.
Building on a concept presented in 2022, county staff shared a more detailed “30% design” plan for Lincoln Street between Old Meadow Road and Magarity Road at a virtual community meeting on Nov. 13. Feedback on the proposal is being accepted through an online survey until Dec. 6.
A development expected to significantly increase the availability of workforce housing in Tysons East won the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors’ approval on Tuesday (Oct. 11).
The board voted unanimously in support of SCG Development’s proposal to replace a six-story office building at 1750 Old Meadow Road with two connected, 8-story residential buildings with 453 workforce housing units.
The proposed replacement of a Tysons East office building with affordable housing will be supported by over $33 million in local and federal public funds.

A planned street that will eventually connect Tysons East to Pimmit Hills could bring some major changes to Magarity Road, the border between the two neighborhoods.
