Fill This Space: Reston Station’s Retail Center

Retail space at Reston Station

Reston’s first Silver Line Metro station at Wiehle-Reston East opened on Saturday with much fanfare.

The mixed-use development at Reston Station, which sits atop the seven-level underground garage adjacent to the Metro station, is still a work in progress. Eventually, there will be more than 1 million square feet of office, hotel, retail and residential space, says Comstock, the developer of the project.

One part of Reston Station is ready to go though: the 10,000-square-foot retail building (which will eventually be the hotel lobby when it is constructed).

What do you thing would make a good business (or businesses, as it can be divided) there? What could the plaza really use as its first restaurant or store?
