21 november



Most of that growth is likely related to the Metro’s arrival – the Wiehle-Reston East station is the current end of the new Silver Line, which will eventually, in the next [and at-least-for-now final] installment, run all the way out just beyond Dulles International Airport [awkwardly jumble-acronymed as IAD]. Hooray!

New apartments, new offices, a new hotel – all of these are right on the Metro station itself. There’s plenty more that’s being built in other parts of town, though, including the high-rise apartment buildings near Reston Town Center. The easiest way to note where these buildings are would be to look for a once-temporary road on a map – a road called, of course, Temporary Road. There’s something happening there. The road’s so permanent, though, that the name is on the street signs. Confusing? Just temporarily.
