	< PREVIOUS PAGE Rosslyn-Balson Corridor Arlington, Virginia Arlington is the national leader in smart growth and new urbanism.  Over 90 percent of all new commercial and residential development is located in the Rosslyn-Ballston and Crystal City Metro corridors. The five Metro stations in the Rosslyn-Ballston Corridor – Rosslyn, Courthouse, Clarendon, Virginia Square-George Mason University, and Ballston – are focal points for high-density, mixed-use, transit-oriented development. Today, there are more than 27,000 residences and hotel rooms, and 23,000,000 S.F. of office and retail space in the R-B Corridor.  These uses generate more than 82,000 daily Metro passenger boardings and alightings.  Another 1,850 residences and hotel rooms, and 1,050,000 S.F. of office and retail space, is currently under construction.  The R-B Corridor is far from built-out.  Another 16,500 residences and hotel rooms, and 34,000,000 S.F. of office and retail space remains to be built. Planned floor area ratios (FAR) range from 3.0 to 10.0 in the “bull’s eye” of these Metro station areas.  Adjacent, low-density residential neighborhoods are preserved under county policies. Remarkably, average daily traffic (ADT) volumes on Wilson Boulevard, Clarendon Boulevard, Washington Boulevard, and other arterial streets have remained stable in recent years, in spite of rapid development in the corridor. Vehicular traffic is manageable due to: • High Metro use (20 to 40 percent for commercial uses and up to 60 percent for residential uses) • The pedestrian-friendly environment that encourages walking between nearby places to live, work, shop, and play • Strict parking controls (typically, one parking space for every 580 S.F. of commercial uses, one space per residential dwelling unit, and 0.7 spaces per hotel room) • Transportation management programs that encourage walk/bike trips, transit use, ride-sharing, and staggered work hours.
