Capital One Headquarters Debated

Company wants a taller building in Tysons.

Capital One wants to make its future headquarters office building the tallest in Tysons Corner. McLean Citizens Association discussed the changes in the development plan at its April 2 Board of Directors meeting. The Building 3 office building, if constructed as planned, will rise 470 feet - 32 stories - into the Tysons skyline due to the mechanicals that will be placed at the top. This will make it the tallest building in the urban center. Their current McLean headquarters building is 14 stories. The new building is planned to be more than twice that size. “This is going to be a monster of a building,” said board member Mark Zetts during the zoning presentation.
