Kind of long overdue so lets get this up and running.

I have no idea what is going in my hometown metro anymore.

About 15 million square feet currently under construction in DC, MD, and NoVA. That will be quit a list if anyone puts it down:yes:

Cirrus? Cirrus?

Wait. Couldn't we just go to BeyondDC.com and find out all this stuff?

Marc, I dont care about the standard office park stuff being built, everywhere has that. Im talking about more urban development, like the Ballston-Rossyln Corridor, Bethesda, DC etc.

There was a good post here about 3 months ago which listed high rises going up in Silver Spring and Rockville(N. Bethesda) around the new conference center. It was pretty detailed. I'm not sure if there is a way to locate older posts?

For the District of Columbia itself go here (http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=117631). The linked report includes info on most of the substantial projects in DC proper.

I also posted a thread with major suburban projects many months ago, but as that seems to have been pruned, go here (http://beyonddc.com/planning/development.shtml). That's just for big master plans, TODs and stuff like that. No individual buildings. Unfortunately I don't know of a single place where you can find a lot of info about single buildings in ther 'burbs. There's just too much going on. This thread (http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=120828), however, gives you info on one prominent skyscraper in Rosslyn.

Wow...that's about how much is being developed in just lower Manhattan.

Yeah, but that much wasn't *destroyed* in Washington 5 years ago. Not to get into a pissing match, but what's going on in Lower Manhattan is a special case.
