Site work for the new Tysons Technology Center Parking Garage and Tysons field has begun in Vienna, VA.  Located at the south intersection of Route 7 and the Beltway, this project replaces an existing surface parking lot with a 5-story parking garage and a full size athletic field.

Construction of the athletic field is part of Fairfax County’s land development plan that calls for the construction one full sized public athletic facility for every 4.5 million square feet of development. Technology Field is the result of a proffer with Fairfax County and The Meridian Group for two developments near the Greensboro Metro Station.

The project, designed by Little Diversified Architecture, involves the demolition of existing site utilities and surface paving, the installation of new utilities for the 331-car parking structure, and the construction of the athletic field between existing office buildings and the Beltway.

The 5-story precast concrete parking garage includes auger piles and cast in place foundations.  The athletic field includes a full size 360’ x 180’ synthetic turf field, LED lighting, bleachers, and bicycle racks.  To create the level field required for athletic installations, a new retaining wall with ball catcher net and sound wall is required running parallel to the existing sound wall along the Beltway.

The athletic field facility will be operated and maintained by the Fairfax County Park Authority.
