Fairfax County has approved a comprehensive plan amendment that allows Stout & Teague to move forward with a predominantly residential development near the Innovation Center Metro station in Herndon. The firm has spent nearly 20 years assembling three parcels on Rock Hill Road, totaling 8.6 acres, and is proposing a mix of multifamily units, stacked townhomes, and a central park. The amendment enables medium-density housing—up to 432 units—within walking distance of Metro, aligning with community and county priorities. Stout & Teague may further expand the project by acquiring an adjacent property to enhance park space. A rezoning application is expected in early 2026, with county supervisors praising the project’s fit and potential benefits for the area.
