Frequently Asked Questions
What is West Falls?
West Falls is a walkable new neighborhood in Falls Church, VA just steps to the West Falls Church Metro station.

When complete, Greater West Falls is planned to include approximately 710,000 sq ft of office space, 162,000 sq ft of retail, 2 million sq ft of residential space, 200,000 sq ft of senior living, an 80,000-sq ft hotel and 100,000 sq ft of academic space. The neighborhood will also feature parks, open space and approximately 1.9 miles of new pedestrian and bicycle connections, creating a more connected place to live, work, dine and access regional transit.
