Metropolitan Park, situated in Arlington, VA’s rapidly evolving Pentagon City neighborhood, is a 2,100,000 square foot office development that serves as Amazon’s Virginia headquarters. This ambitious urban revitalization project reimagines underutilized spaces into dynamic, community-oriented environments. The park encompasses two 22-story buildings featuring 65,000 square feet of street-level retail, meticulously renovated public spaces, and advanced sustainability systems.

Central to the development is a 2.5-acre public space designed to integrate seamlessly with its urban surroundings. It includes recreational areas, a dog park, public art installations, and paths lined with native plants, creating a versatile environment for community events and activities. Spearheaded by James Corner Field Operations, renowned for their work on New York City’s High Line, the design of Metropolitan Park exemplifies innovation in urban design and environmental sustainability.

The park incorporates extensive use of Mattoni pavers, featured in the walkways, drive areas, and the dog park. A sophisticated color palette, including Charcoal, Dark Charcoal, Granite Blend, Opal, Sable Blend, Linen, and Steel Grey Blend, establishes a visually engaging pattern. Complementing this, Holland Premier in Granite introduces a refined, contemporary aesthetic, enhancing the diversity of tones and textures.

Metropolitan Park stands as a testament to Arlington’s commitment to sustainable urban living, offering a thoughtfully designed environment that addresses the community’s needs and aspirations, and setting a new benchmark in green architecture.
