Meeting Details 
Wednesday, January 21, 2026  
7:00 - 8:00 p.m. 
McLean Community Center 
1234 Ingleside Avenue, McLean 22101

The proposed seven story multi-family building is located in the Center Zone of the McLean Community Business Center, where the most dense development is envisioned in downtown. Development in the Center Zone is recommended to provide a high-quality pedestrian-oriented environment with continuous sidewalks and streetscapes, buildings located close to the sidewalk, and active ground floor uses. The proposed development includes up to fifty-six dwelling units and approximately 2,100 square feet of ground floor retail.  

The Elm Street frontage would be activated by ground floor retail and street trees will be planted along the property’s Elm Street and Beverly Road frontages. The applicant has proffered to provide a six-foot wide landscaping zone, eight-foot sidewalk, and four foot building zone, as called for in the McLean Design Guidelines. The proposed retail space includes an area for outdoor dining and a public space element has been included to activate Beverly Road and Elm Street intersection. Vehicular access for both parking and loading activities will be consolidated into one curb cut on Beverly Road and all parking is proposed to be within the building in a two-level garage.

A Planning Commission public hearing to consider the proposal is scheduled for February 25, 2026 and a hearing by the Board of Supervisors is scheduled for March 17, 2026. For more information and updates if changes to hearing dates should occur, visit the project dashboard. Meeting materials will be posted on the Dranesville District webpage following the meeting.
