I don't know why Fairfax isn't focusing more growth into Tysons... fewer infrastructure upgrades would be needed to significantly increase capacity. Something like a light-rail/trolley route looping around Tysons but transecting the Metro stations would do wonders in making Tysons a city unto itself.

FFX grew by ~110,000 between 2000 and 2010... if that growth is to be sustained, they should really get rid of the FAR limits for residential in Tysons... it would foster tremendous walk-ability and transforming Tysons into a place where people live should be the primary goal.
