One of Tyson’s new office towers is ready for business. MRP Realty, a Washington, D.C.-based company and Rockpoint Group LLC, a Boston-based real estate private equity firm, unveiled Tysons Overlook last week.
The new 11-story office tower is located at 7940 Jones Branch Drive at the newly constructed Jones Branch Drive/HOT Lanes and Jones Branch Connector Road intersection.
The primary tenant in the 308,000-square-foot Class A office will be LMI, a government-consulting firm currently based in McLean. In a presale deal, LMI agreed to occupy the first six floors, or about 138,000 square feet, as co-owners of the property.
“The Northern Virginia office market, particularly the submarket of Tysons Corner, is commanding a premium today with the arrival of the Silver Line, and Tysons Overlook with its proximity to many transportation gateways will make it a desirable location for businesses to locate,” Bob Murphy, managing partner of MRP Realty said in a statement. “Tysons Overlook offers flexible workplace solutions so that the changing needs of today’s businesses in our area will be able to customize what their operations require.”
Tysons Overlook features a 8,500-square-foot café and outdoor patio, a 3,500-square-foot, fitness center and a furnished event terrace with a water feature and landscape views.
