Reston Town Center North Redevelopment
The Board of Supervisors envisions redeveloping the property from a collection of irregularly-shaped parcels, which are incompatible with Reston Town Center and surrounding development, into a vibrant urban, mixed-use environment that complements Reston Town Center and surrounding development. Reston Town Center North will be accessible from Dulles Toll Road, Fairfax County Parkway, and Reston Parkway, and nearby public transportation includes the Wiehle-Reston East Metrorail station (two miles) and the future Reston Town Center Metrorail station (one mile).
The first areas under consideration include the Reston Regional Library and the Embry Rucker Shelter. At this time there are no public information meetings scheduled, but check here for updates.
For additional information, visit the Reston Town Center North website. On the website you will find presentations from previous community outreach events, maps, redevelopment process information, timelines, and frequently asked questions.

St. Johns
Wood: Plan Amendment
UPDATE April 20, 2017: At this time, Bozzuto Development Company has decided to indefinitely defer the application for redevelopment.
UPDATE April 2017: Supervisor Hudgins will host a community meeting on the revised proposal for St Johns Wood Apartments on Tuesday, April 25, from 7 to 9 pm, at Langlston Hughes Middle School lecutre hall (11401 Ridge Heights Road, Reston).
UPDATE February 2017: The Bozzoto Development Company, Inc. (St. Johns Wood) public hearing for Proffer Condition Amendment (PCA 86-C-023), Development Plan Amendment (DPA 86-C-023) and Planned Residential Community Amendment Plan (PRCA 86-C-023) for the proposed redevelopment of St. Johns Wood apartments to convert the existing multi-family garden apartments locataed at 11500 Olde Tiverton Circle, Reston [Tax Map 11-4 ((1)) Parcel 12] was scheduled for January 25, 2017. Bozzuto is in the process of revising their plan; therefore, the public hearing was deferred until May 25, 2017. Plans have not been resubmitted to date, so there is a chance the public hearing may be deferred again.
Since publishing the July-August Hunter Mill Highlights newsletter, the St. Johns Wood redevelopment plan has been amended to the following:
Bozzuto Development Company and St. Johns Wood Realty Holding Company, Inc. seeks approval of a Proffered Condition Amendment (PCA), Development Plan Amendment (DPA) and a Planned Residential Community (PRC) plan to redevelop the property located at 11555 Old Tiverton Circle, Reston [Tax Map 11-4 ((1)) Parcel 12] from the existing 250 multi-family garden apartments to 467 mid-rise, multi-family units and 46 single-family attached units.

New
Land Use Process for Reston
Supervisor Hudgins introduced a new Land Use Process, Reston Land Use Launch, at the Reston Planning and Zoning meeting on Monday, October 17. This new step in the local land use process is an attempt to share these proposals with the larger community earlier in the land use process and afford an earlier opportunity for community engagement.
After applications are officially accepted by the County, Supervisor Hudgins will then coordinate the Reston Planning and Zoning committee to schedule a public informational meeting. This will give the community notice of pending applications earlier in the land use process. Notifications will be published in the Hunter Mill Highlights newsletter, eBlast, and Hunter Mill Facebook. Contact Goldie Harrison at the Hunter Mill District office for information.
