We're excited to celebrate the groundbreaking of The Nest! In proud partnership with SCG Development, this all-affordable housing development will provide 94 homes for households earning no more than 30%, 40%, 50%, and 60% of the area median income.

Designed around walkability and providing quality homes for people who work and want to live in Loudoun County, The Nest is just a 5-minute walk from One Loudoun, with a variety of retail, restaurants, and other amenities nearby. Residents will also have access to a soccer field and Heron Overlook Nature Park, as well as a new Loudoun County Transit bus stop adjacent to the development for convenient access to transit.

A lot can happen in 37 years. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Our CREDA (formerly NAIOP) Awards history goes all the way back to 1989, when Fair Lakes Court North, developed in partnership with Hazel/Peterson Companies, was recognized as Best Office Building Between 75,000 and 150,000 SF. Since then, weโ€™ve had the honor of being recognized 54 times for projects spanning office, residential, mixed-use, amenity spaces, and community-focused work.

Our most recent wins include Best Mixed-Use Building for Unity Homes at Ballston; Best Amenity Space for National Landing Center; and Design of Excellence for Community Enrichment for Capital Area Food Bank. We are doubly privileged to be currently working with CAFB on the renovation of their DC facility.

Weโ€™re looking forward to another great evening celebrating this yearโ€™s submissions, our friends and colleagues across the industry, and the work that continues to shape Northern Virginia!

Weโ€™re excited to share Indigo at McLean Station Phase A has officially been awarded EarthCraft Multi-Family Gold Certification!

A key part of the projectโ€™s sustainable approach was reusing the existing parking garage. By retaining the garage as part of the new 100% affordable residential development, the project avoided the need for new foundations, reducing the amount of concrete, materials, and resources.

Congratulations to the entire project team, including Development, James G. Davis Construction (DAVIS), VIKA Virginia, LLC, Sustainable Building Partners, LLC, Jordan & Skala Engineers, SK&A Structural Engineers, and ECS Group of Companies for their partnership in creating a sustainable, thoughtfully designed, and affordable community for residents.
