Your support is needed at a community meeting this evening (Monday) at 7PM in the North County Government Center to discuss the massive redevelopment proposed at the southeast corner of Wiehle Avenue and Sunrise Valley Drive.
TF
Cornerstone is proposing three new buildings on this property, to
include a 29-story residential building, a 14-story commercial building,
and an 8-story residential building; the two smaller buildings
currently on the property will remain. The 29-story and 14-story
buildings will dwarf the neighborhoods at this intersection, as they
are immediately across the street from single family homes and multiple
townhouse clusters.
If
approved and built, this development will house over 2,600 new
residents and employees, overwhelming an already-packed Sunrise Valley
Drive. There simply are no/no road
improvements that could even remotely address this increased level of
traffic density. Eastbound traffic on Sunrise Valley is already so
backed up in late afternoon that it's nearly impossible to turn out of
the Upper Lake Drive on either of its intersections with SVR. (Upper
Lake is a horseshoe-shaped road.)
TF Cornerstone has invited all affected neighbors to a community meeting on Monday, August 26 at 7 PM at the North County Government Center community room (1801 Cameron Glen Drive in Reston. If you know of other individuals or
groups who would be interested in engaging on this proposal, please
feel free to forward this post to them.

In
addition, there are two posts on Nextdoor by Upper Lake neighbors who
met with RA and with TF Cornerstone's land-use attorney that provide
additional background info for you (see links below). It is useful to note that one of my Upper Lake neighbors replied
on Nextdoor that she had never gotten a notice from TF Cornerstone about
this meeting.
