Firm Shareholder, Andrew Painter, Set to Moderate BISNOW’s The Future of Arlington County

by Andrew A. Painter

On April 17th, BISNOW will be hosting the Future of Arlington County: Exploring National Landing, Rosslyn, Ballston, and Clarendon speaker panel. Firm Shareholder, Andrew Painter, will moderate a discussion entitled “Beyond the Bridge: Rosslyn and Ballston’s Asset Class Diversity and Forward-Thinking Strategies” amongst colleagues from Insight Property Group, Skanska USA Commercial Development, Monday Properties, and the Arlington County Board of Supervisors.  Andrew works in the firm’s Land Use and Zoning practice group, where he focuses on securing zoning entitlements across Northern Virginia, including Arlington County, Fairfax County, Loudoun County, the City of Falls Church, the City of Fairfax, and the Town of Leesburg. A native of Northern Virginia, Andrew has spent much time traveling and writing about the region’s land development history and received an award from the Virginia Chapter of the American Planning Association for his review of enduring rural landscapes in Fairfax County.

At the panel, you can expect to learn:

  • What does Arlington County have in store for its 2024 development pipeline? How are developers and investors taking lessons learned in 2023 and applying them to their future project investments?
  • Why are new residents, tenants and businesses being drawn to neighborhoods like Clarendon, Rosslyn, and National Landing? How are developers and investors selecting neighborhoods for their projects? What factors are being considered?
  • What is in store for Arlington’s mixed-use development pipeline in terms of bringing in multifamily, retail and other projects? What are current resident and tenant demands and how are developers meeting them while staying within budget?
  • How are the challenges of the economic downturn impacting construction and development in Northern Virginia? What solutions have developers and investors come up with to overcome these obstacles?
  • How is the area working together to build a competitive live-work-play community compared to other NoVa counties?
  • As the county continues to grow, how is the area strategizing to improve infrastructure, transportation, labor force and much more?
