Tysons Corner, Virginia, is in the process of reinventing itself into a walkable, sustainable urban center. The Tysons Corner Task Force has recommended compact development near four planned Metro stations, mixed-use residential and commercial neighborhoods, green building requirements, major reductions in stormwater runoff, affordable and workforce housing, and a pedestrian- and bicycle-friendly street design to reduce traffic. Panelists discuss what it will take to implement these recommendations.
