Project Under Development – Expected Completion Summer 2023
The Volume II: District Design Guidelines for McLean will contain written and visual ideas for the design of streets, lighting, and the area fronting buildings. The guidelines will provide design direction to enhance the appearance of the McLean Commercial Revitalization District (CRD). It is a companion document to the Volume I: Urban Design Guidelines for Fairfax County Revitalization Districts and Areas. These two volumes are to be used together when proposing, designing, or reviewing development projects.
Currently, the draft McLean District Guidelines are available for public review and comments. Based on feedback provided at a community workshop last spring, the draft Design Guidelines communicate community desires for a walkable, small town feel with brick sidewalks, street trees, outdoor cafes, lively park spaces, and lush landscaping.
