(RECAP: Even motorists cruising by on the Beltway cannot miss the eruption of glass and concrete taking place in Tysons. Aging edifices have been scrapped away and gleaming new buildings continue to sprout up all over – resulting in a radically altered skyline. About 7 million square feet of construction, including parks and playgrounds, will be delivered in the next six to 30 months. The appraised value of all property in Tysons went up by $1 billion, or 8.7 percent, in the last 12 months, giving a lift to Fairfax County’s coffers, said Michael Caplin, president of the Tysons Partnership. In 2014 and 2015, developers delivered six projects with 2.33 million square feet of space, including 1.44 million of residential, 848,000 of commercial and 45,000 of retail.)
