Lake Anne
The Lake Anne Village Center Washington Plaza was the first area developed in the planned community of Reston, and its unique design and sense of place are recognized worldwide by planners, architects and developers. Designated a Fairfax County Historic Overlay District, Washington Plaza is located in the heart of the Lake Anne Village Center. Its brick plaza, shops, and residences surrounding a man-made lake, have the form and feel of a European waterfront community.
The Lake Anne Commercial Revitalization Area (CRA), which includes the Historic Overlay District, is bounded by Baron Cameron Avenue (Rte 606) to the north, Lake Anne to the south, North Shore Drive to the west and Moorings Drive to the east. An integrated planning effort consisting of stakeholder Charette, and Focus Groups; and, planning, parking and transportation studies resulted in an amendment to the Fairfax County Comprehensive Plan on March 30, 2009. These changes reflect community values and perspectives, and position Lake Anne to again become an example of how innovative reinvestment and development can result in a renewed economic future.
