- CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES -
UPDATED 5.5.2023

 

After years of planning, and 40 months of construction, we've reached the final chapter in Metropolitan Park's delivery. As our team puts the finishing touches on our work on site, we wanted to thank you -- our neighbors and community partners -- for your inquiries, engagement, and, most importantly, your patience and support over the last three years.

Soon the children's park, edible garden and forest walk will be open and accessible to all. Soon, local businesses will activate new retail spaces, serving up new amenities and flavors that will further enhance this community. Soon, Metropolitan Park's two 22-stories towers will be filled with new people and ideas.

While the physical structures our team will leave behind fill us with a tremendous sense of pride and accomplishment, we are equally proud of the significant economic impact this project has created. From contracting opportunities for local, small, and diverse companies, to apprenticeships, to unique learning experiences for our craft workforce and project management team, Metropolitan Park's construction has served as a platform for growth. We are honored to deliver this important asset that has and will continue to invigorate the Arlington community for decades to come.

Though our work at Metropolitan Park is coming to a close, we remain committed to supporting the Arlington community and look forward to building what matters, together, in the future.  Please enjoy our thank you video from our project leaders below.

ONGOING OPERATIONS

Road Operations: As we approach the completion of construction at Metropolitan Park 6/7/8, we wanted to make you aware of traffic changes occurring within the neighborhood. These adjustments will enable us to transition to new permanent traffic patterns over the next few weeks. During this period, neighbors are encouraged to be observant when navigating around the project site. 

The highlighted intersections, illustrated in red on the map below, will have additional flaggers in place in order to safely direct pedestrians, drivers, and bikers as they navigate the area.

Work Hours: Our project team is committed to working in compliance with Arlington County's noise ordinance and operating within the County's permitted work hours of 7 AM to 9 PM (Mon-Fri) and 9 AM to 9 PM (Sat, Sun, and holidays).
