Capital One Tower is currently the tallest building. Standing 470 feet (140 m) tall, it was completed in 2018. VITA Tysons Corner had previously held the record since 2015.[1]

History edit

Development by the military and intelligence sectors in Tysons began in 1952 with the construction of a 330-foot (100 m) microwave transmission tower, known as the Tysons Corner Communications Tower, by the United States Army.[2] Built upon the highest elevation in Fairfax County,[3][4] the tower relayed microwave transmissions between Washington, D.C., and government facilities near the Blue Ridge Mountains to enable emergency continuity of government.[2] Tysons itself was a rural crossroads community until 1961, when the Central Intelligence Agency completed its headquarters in nearby Langley.[5] This spurred defense contractors to set up offices in Tysons.[5] In 1962, real estate developer WestGroup received county approval to build its WestGate and WestPark office parks in Tysons which were among the first in the area.[5] That same year, the county also approved plans for Lerner Enterprises to build the Tysons Corner Center shopping mall, which subsequently opened in 1968.[5]

By the mid-1980s, the Fairfax County supervisors approved an easing of the county's 75-foot (23 m) height limit to allow for the construction of the never-built 204-foot (62 m) Tysons Tower office building at the intersection of the Capital Beltway and Virginia Route 7.[6] By 1985, Fairfax County officials considered a plan to construct "gateways" which consisted of pairs of buildings as high as 22 stories or 215 feet (66 m) at key intersections along the Capital Beltway, the Dulles Access Road, Virginia Route 7, and Virginia Route 123. County officials sought to make Tysons into Fairfax County's "new downtown."[6][7] The plan also called for proposing a rooftop height limit of 730 feet (220 m) as the maximum height for future construction projects.[7]

In June 2010, the Fairfax County supervisors authorized a plan to transform Tysons from an automobile-dependent suburb into a "walkable city."[8] By 2011, Tysons had 26,700,000 square feet (2,480,000 m2) of office space; higher than the metropolitan areas of San Antonio, Texas and Jacksonville, Florida.[5] Increased high-rise construction in Tysons was further spurred by the construction and opening of the Silver Line of the Washington Metro, which has four stations in Tysons: Spring Hill, Greensboro, Tysons Corner, and McLean.[9][10] The Capital One Headquarters, under construction near the McLean station as of 2019, contains the tallest building in Tysons and the Washington metropolitan area at 470 feet (140 m), and is the second-tallest non-communication structure in the Washington metropolitan area after the Washington Monument (which stands 554 feet 7+11⁄32 inches (169.046 m)).[11] 1775 Tysons Boulevard, constructed by Lerner Enterprises near Tysons Corner station, is the first building in Tysons to achieve platinum status under the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) building rating system and among the first in the Washington metropolitan area.[12]

Tysons has the 8th largest retail square footage in the United States with 4,800,000 square feet (450,000 m2).[9] Tysons is home to the corporate headquarters of five Fortune 500 companies: Freddie Mac, Capital One, Hilton Worldwide, Booz Allen Hamilton, and Gannett Company.[13]

transmission tower known as the Tysons Corner Communications Tower by the United States Army 2 Built upon the highest elevation in Fairfax County 3 4 the tower relayed microwave transmissions between Washington D C and government facilities near the Blue Ridge Mountains to enable emergency continuity of government 2 Tysons itself was a rural crossroads community until 1961 when the Central Intelligence Agency completed its headquarters in nearby Langley 5 This spurred defense contractors to set up offices in Tysons 5 In 1962 real estate developer WestGroup received county approval to build its WestGate and WestPark office parks in Tysons which were among the first in the area 5 That same year the county also approved plans for Lerner Enterprises to build the Tysons Corner Center shopping mall which subsequently opened in 1968 5 nbsp Aerial image of Tysons in 2010By the mid 1980s the Fairfax County supervisors approved an easing of the county s 75 foot 23 m height limit to

000 square feet 2 480 000 m2 of office space higher than the metropolitan areas of San Antonio Texas and Jacksonville Florida 5 Increased high rise construction in Tysons was further spurred by the
