THE SILVER LINE
IS COMING
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Spurred by employment growth and Metro access,
CBRE estimates an average of 200,000 sq. ft. of
net offce demand annually through 2017 in Tysons
Corner.
High-quality offce space development will increase
rental rates for the Tysons Corner submarket and
reduce value-priced options.
Almost 75% of all Tysons development will be within
a 10-minute walk of a Metrorail station, transforming
it into a walkable and livable urban center.
Developers will need to focus on building multifamily
projects and cultivating community programming that
will appeal to young, urban professionals.
After many years of planning and nearly fve years of
construction, Metrorail service is fnally arriving this
summer in Tysons Corner and Reston, Virginia. The
Silver Line will transform the landscape of Northern
Virginia, driving population and employment growth
around the new Metrorail stations. By 2050, the
population of Tysons Corner is expected to grow six-fold,
while employment will almost double.
The delivery of the $2.95 billion, 11.4-mile Phase I
of the Silver Line is the largest expansion of Metrorail
service since the inception of the system in 1976. When
Phase II is complete (estimated in 2018), 23 miles of
the Metrorail system will extend through Fairfax County
into Loudoun County, Virginia. By linking communities
in Northern Virginia and downtown Washington, D.C.,
the Silver Line will enable employment and population
growth, serving as a catalyst for commercial real estate
leasing and additional development.

Metrorail ridership is anticipated to increase with the
opening of the Silver Line stations. The Silver Line will
serve both commuters traveling out from Washington,
D.C. and in from the western suburbs of Fairfax and
Loudoun Counties. The Washington Metropolitan Area
Transit Authority (WMATA) projects the Silver Line will
attract approximately 740,000 riders per month in the
frst year of operation. Ridership projections identify the
Wiehle-Reston East Station as the most heavily traffcked
station. It is the only station along Phase I of the Silver
Line with a parking garage containing 2,300 parking
spaces. Although the McLean Station has a 10-year
agreement for a lot with 711 spaces, its developer may
utilize an early termination option for redevelopment.
Furthermore, the Tysons Corner Station, adjacent to the
Tysons Corner Center mall, is also expected to have high
ridership due to the concentration of nearby retail and
dining options.

TYSONS CORNER
EMPLOYMENT
Metrorail access in Tysons Corner will spur job growth,
which is needed to drive demand for offce space.
Tysons Corner is expected to add an estimated 30,000
jobs by 2020, and almost double its employment to
200,000 workers by 2050
1
.
After fve years of negative net absorption for offce
space between 2007 and 2011, Tysons experienced
positive absorption in 2012 and 2013. Some of this
demand can be attributed to employment growth in
Northern Virginias Financial Services and Information
Technology sectors. The additional growth forecast for
these sectors will contribute to offce space demand.
CBRE forecasts that net offce demand for the Tysons
Corner submarket will average 200,000 square feet (sq.
ft.) annually through 2017.
Metrorail access may also attract new employers
along the Silver Line. The Professional and Business
Services sectorwhich includes lawyers, government
contractors and information technology professionalsis
the dominant source of employment in Tysons Corner
today. However, the Rosslyn-Ballston (R-B) Corridor
has attracted a higher percentage of public sector
employees, partially due to its better access to public
transportation following the construction of the Orange
Line.
The introduction of the Silver Line in Tysons Corner
creates opportunities for building owners to attract
employers, such as the Federal Government, which
require public transportation access for their workers.
Furthermore, new development around Metrorail stations
may attract growing information technology frms that
employ a younger workforce. This younger demographic
may choose to live in the District and commute out to
Tysons Corner by rail, or live in some of the proposed
multifamily developments surrounding the new Metrorail
stops.

Tysons Corner has been a place to work more than a
place to live. Home to almost 15,000 residents, Tysons
Corner welcomed an estimated 105,000 employees
each day in 2010

. All of this is expected to change
with the addition of Metrorail and the redevelopment of
Tysons Corner over time. Tysons Corner will experience
a transformation as the mix of residential, offce and
retail properties are slated to change in the coming
years. With new residential development, the population
in Tysons Corner is expected to reach 100,000 people
by 2050: over 6.5 times the population today.
The addition of the Silver Line along with multifamily
and retail projects in Tysons Corner will be key in
attracting a younger demographic. Currently, young
professionals25-34 years oldmake up a larger
share of the population in the R-B Corridor (43%) than
in Tysons Corner (24%). Developers will need to build
multifamily projects, provide restaurants and cultivate
community programming that appeal to young, urban
working professionals. Tysons development should
emulate mixed-use areas such as Reston Town Center
and the R-B Corridor, which have been successful in
their mix of live, work and play to attract a young
professional demographic.

One of the key issues facing Tysons Corner is traffc and
congestion. Over a period of time, the Silver Line is
expected to have an impact on transportation usage in
Tysons comparable to the Orange Lines impact on the
R-B Corridor. While almost 40% of the R-B Corridors
population currently uses public transportation to get to
work, a mere 7% of the population does so in Tysons
Corner. Additionally, an astonishing 75% of Tysons
population drives alone to work.
Assuming that Tysons population will grow by an
estimated 85,000 people in the next 35 years, there
could be an additional 64,000 people commuting to
work by car. In order to encourage public transportation
usage, improved connections with buses and shuttles
to and from Metrorail stations are needed. To
accommodate better access to the stations, Fairfax
County has approved a plan to establish bus routes to
connect and serve Vienna, Merrifeld, Herndon, McLean,
Tysons Corner and Reston. Additionally, infrastructure for
bicycles and car-share programs around the stations will
create the type of connectivity needed to decrease auto
dependence.

Metrorail stations will spur signifcant commercial real
estate development. An additional 66 million sq. ft.
are estimated for Tysons Corner as part of its long-
term redevelopment plan. Commercial real estate
development is expected to concentrate around the new
Metrorail stations, on par with the bulls-eye concept
of transit-oriented development (TOD), in which dense
mixed-use development is established primarily within a
quarter-mile radius of each Metro station. Tysons Corner
is planned to emulate this bulls eye concept around the
four Metro stations.
According to the 2013 Report to the Fairfax County
Board of Supervisors, the long-term goal for Tysons
Corner is to be transformed into a walkable,
sustainable, urban center. Starting in 2010, the
Board adopted a Comprehensive Plan Amendment
for Tysons Corner Urban Center, which envisions the
redevelopment of Tysons with a particular emphasis
on mixed-use. The Plan also encourages the most
effcient land use patterns that would promote TOD and
transportation effciencynamely, increased transit use
and decreased automobile dependency.
The TOD districts are planned for transit station mixed-
use development, with an allocation of 65% offce
space, at least 20% residential, and 15% in retail,
hotel or civic uses. Beyond the TOD districts, most
areas are planned for residential mixed-use. In these
areas, 75% of space will be earmarked for residential
development, while the remainder will go towards
offce, hotel, retail and civic uses. In accordance to the
Plans recommendation to create a high-quality urban
environment, the Plan prescribes roughly 75% of all
Tysons development to be within a 10-minute walk of
a Metrorail station. Moreover, Tysons Comprehensive
Plan describes incentives being implemented to
allot 20% of new residential units to affordable and
workforce housing so that diverse income levels can not
only work, but also live in Tysons Corner.

With Metrorail service in sight, tenants are showing
interest in Metro-accessible, mixed-use locations. For
example, Macerichs new 526,000-sq.-ft. Trophy
building, Tysons Tower, is contiguous to the Tysons Corner
Station and includes a 30-story Trophy residential tower
and a 17-story Hyatt Regency nearby. Intelsat signed a
185,000-sq.-ft. lease to relocate its D.C. headquarters
to Tysons Tower, while Deloitte also signed a lease for
85,000-sq.-ft.
As tenants are drawn to locations within easy walking
distance of Metro stations, rental rates are expected to
increase. With the anticipated arrival of the Metro and
access to many restaurants and retail stores, rental rates
have already risen 9% to 11%, on average, in 2013 for
buildings near the Greensboro, Spring Hill and Tysons
Corner Stations. Moreover, new development such as
Tysons Tower demanded some of the highest rents in the
Tysons Corner submarket, driving rates near the Tysons
Corner Station. Future development and redevelopment
like this may eliminate some Class B/C value options,
thereby further driving rental rates up.

The next chapter of the Silver Line is scheduled to start
soon. The 11-mile stretch of Phase II will include six
additional Metrorail stations throughout Fairfax and
Loudoun Counties, including stops at Reston Town
Center and Dulles International Airport. In May 2013,
a contract was awarded to Capital Rail Constructors to
begin construction of Phase IIscheduled to begin in
Spring 2014while its highly-anticipated completion is
estimated for July 2018.
The Silver Line will continue to spread its infuence
by fueling population and employment growth along
Phase II. Moreover, the addition of high-paying jobs
in fnancial services, education, healthcare and
professional services in employment centers along the
Silver Line will continue to drive economic growth in
Northern Virginia.
Five new Metrorail stations in Phase I of the Silver Line
will connect public transportation to offce, apartment
and retail properties. The following pages outline what
each station offers today, although there is much more
to come as new development projects will continue to
transform the areas around the Metrorail stations.

The Spring Hill Metro
Station is the last Silver
Line station stop in Tysons
Corner, and will provide
two station entrances
on both sides of Route 7
and a pedestrian bridge
crossing Spring Hill Road.
The station offers a bus
drop-off/pick-up as well
as a kiss & ride. Within
walking distance are
Comfort Inn and Embassy
Suites hotels, while
nearby restaurants include
Ruths Chris, Noodles &
Company, Moby Dick,
Potbelly and Smash
Burger. Other retailers in
proximity to the station
include Ethan Allen, Wal-
Mart and 24-Hour Fitness.
Plans for the Spring
Hill Station envision the
surrounding area to be
an arts and entertainment
district, where transit-
oriented development
will feature dining and
leisure options available
beyond the conventional
workday. There are 11
offce buildings within a
quarter-mile of the Spring
Hill Metro Station with an
average asking rate of
$32.21 (as of Q4 2013),
which increased by $2.75
over the past year. Of the
310,000 sq. ft. available
within these buildings, the
majority of spaces are less
than 10,000 sq. ft.

The last station along
Phase I of the Silver Line
is Wiehle-Reston East. This
station has two entrances
on both sides of the Dulles
Airport Access Highway/
Dulles Toll Road and
a pedestrian bridge.
Wiehle-Reston East will be
the most convenient station
for commuters due to the
bus drop-off/pick-up, kiss
& ride, and the seven-
level parking garage just
south of the station. The
garagethe only one
along the Silver Linehas
1.3 million sq. ft. slated for
mixed-use, transit-oriented
development. The project
will include offce and
retail space, a full service
hotel, and residences. The
only restaurant currently
located near the station
is a Pizza Hut, though
two fast-food shops
McDonalds and Taco
Bellare nearby.
Of all Phase I Metrorail
stations, Wiehle-Reston
East has the largest
concentration of offce
buildings within a 0.25
mile radius. Within the
25 buildings, there are
currently 146,000 sq.
ft. of space available,
and all blocks of space
are under 10,000 sq. ft.
Also within a quarter-mile,
the BLVD Apartments at
Reston Station is planned
to offer 450 upscale
apartment units and is the
only multifamily property
near the Wiehle-Reston
East Station. However, the
construction timeline for
the apartments has not yet
been announced. Wiehle-
Reston East is serviced
by 24 bus routes, with
destinations including the
Reston Town Center, Dulles
Airport, Town of Herndon,
and the Pentagon.
