Set upon the highest spot in Tysons Corner, developers of The Boro first broke ground just a couple of years ago, signing on such big retail anchor tenants as ShowPlace Icon Theater and a Whole Foods. Just recently, though, the developer released details on some of the other new retailers and restaurants coming to the area.

This includes some coffee shops, fast-casual chains and even some sit-down restaurants. Businesses slated to open at the site next year include two restaurants opening up for the first time

One of the DC area’s most recognizable sports stars just cashed in on a pricey piece of McLean real estate. T.J. Oshie, forward for the Washington Capitals, recently signed off on a new contract to keep him on the home ice, as well as a contract tying him to a new home in McLean.

Oshie’s latest $5.2 million deal translates to a five-bedroom home for his family, complete with six fireplaces, an outdoor swimming pool, a library and a media room. Constructed in the mid 1990s by the previous owners, the European-style home reportedly was sold by Ray Ritchey, the senior executive vice president of Boston Properties. Ritchey and his family also still own another nearby property and sold a third local property just last year.

The home wasn’t on the

Set for completion in summer 2018, The Signet will eventually offer 123 units topping ground-level retail and restaurant space.

Downtown McLean is about to get an entirely new look, with the first new construction project in years well underway, soon to bring a mixed-use development to the area. When finished, The Signet will supply more than 120 new luxury condominium homes, in addition to another 5,000 square feet of street level restaurants and retail space.

The pedestrian-friendly project includes plans for a public park, walking paths and gardens, a transition of sorts from the commercial district of McLean to its nearby neighborhoods.

Home to numerous large tech companies, two malls, retail space and hotels, Tysons Corner is truly coming of age. Once simply pasture land, the area has grown over the half-century or so into a massive business district, where an estimated 100,000 people head to work each day and one now known as the economic core of Fairfax County.

Tysons Corner Center mall first opened its doors in the late 1960s, but it took Tysons Galleria mall another 20 years to welcome its first customers. In fact, the original mall was planned out for private cars, but now area leaders see the real need for public transit in the area. While bus lines have been available for years, a new Metro Silver Line, plus improved

The highest paid player in the history of the Washington Wizards is now a homeowner in McLean. Bradley Beal signed a $128 million dollar deal with the team this past summer, and most recently presumably used some of his expected earnings to lay down roots with a new 11,000 square foot home.

The shooting guard paid $3.2 million in October for a six-bedroom, nine-bath mansion originally on the market for more than $3.4 million. The French Provincial-style home includes a formal dining room and wood floored family room with a fireplace, along with custom arched doors leading to a patio, complete with another fireplace and sound system for outdoor living and entertaining space. The large lot also includes enough room for a pool to compliment the

Known for reinventing itself time and time again, it appears Tysons Corner is now embracing smart growth for the future that could have a real impact on drawing more residents to the area.

The largest Whole Foods in the region is set to open in 2019 while the area’s also preparing to welcome its first Wegmans the same year. Proponents say two major grocery stores will help immensely in delivering a more residential-friendly vibe to Tysons Corner. While currently there are homes priced from the low $200,000s to upwards of $600,000 they are mostly
