Tried to clean up and straighten up this photo of the West Falls Church Metro station redevelopment plan (which may be online somewhere, but if so I haven't seen it).

This is one of the last Metro stations in Virginia that hasn't been redeveloped with lots of multi-use 3- and 4-storey buildings around it, and one of the most affordable Metro-adjacent neighborhoods left in Virginia.

Most of what's being redeveloped seems to be the large, space-wasting surface parking lots, but it's too bad they can't keep some of the mature trees through to the end state. 😕
