Tysons Corner Tower Will Be Taller Than Washington Monument

In Tysons Corner, Virginia, by the Spring Hill Metro stop, a developer plans to construct a 2.8 million-square-foot mixed-use development that will feature a 615-foot-tall tower.

With this height, it will be the tallest building in the D.C. region, 60 feet taller than the Washington Monument, the region's tallest structure.

The developer, Clemente Development, has branded the $1.3 billion project as The View at Tysons.

The building, called Iconic Tower, will rise up 48 stories and become the tallest structure in the Washington, D. C area.

The building would be 145 feet taller than the Capital One HQ building, currently under construction in Tysons Corner, and 228 feet taller than the  nearly completed Central Place in Rosslyn, which will be the region's tallest tower for a short time.

Iconic Tower will have 840,000 square feet of condos, 412,000 square feet of hotel space, and 44,000 square feet of retail space.

The project will also encompass a large, open-air shopping plaza.

The View at Tysons will also include two office buildings with ground-floor retail as well as two residential buildings with retail and an urban park.
