Passport apartment community moving forward near Innovation Metro Station

Construction crews are continuing to build a six-story multifamily building with 344 units as well as first floor retail just south of Herndon and the Dulles Toll Road.

The project — less than half a mile from the upcoming Innovation Center Metro station — is dubbed Passport NoVA. It will feature upscaling housing and is located at 13455 and 13461 Sunrise Valley Drive in an area undergoing multiple construction projects near Dulles International Airport

“The community offers a mix of standard units and premium units with upgraded kitchens, and its amenities include a first-floor workspace, fitness center, and courtyard with a pool plus a sky lounge with an indoor kitchen and outdoor patio on the top floor,” CBG Building Co. says on the portfolio section of its website.

The project is set to be completed by June 2022, according to CBG Building’s website.

Woodfield Development, a real estate developer that was founded in 2005, didn’t immediately respond to messages seeking comment.

The project is planning for 6,000 square feet of retail — a little over the size of two tennis courts — and it’s envisioned as part of a vibrant pedestrian-friendly residential community.

Meanwhile, the developer is seeking to add signage to the project. The county is reviewing the matter and lists the permit’s status as “NA.” The county’s Planning Commission approved a comprehensive sign plan last December.

An application called for illuminated signs on the building and for a leasing office as well as a non-illuminated sign for a parking garage above the entrance.

The developer is also looking to place two temporary marketing banners on the building “to be easily identified” by Sunrise Valley traffic, according to the application.

A lawyer for the developer noted the delayed opening of the Metro’s Silver Line extension makes the signage request that much more important.

The project is part of a new neighborhood called Liberty Park that’s leveraging its proximity to the new Metro station.
