Supervisors Stevens Miller (D-Dulles) and Andrea McGimsey (D-Potomac) braved the rain Aug. 3 to celebrate the groundbreaking of Dulles World Center, a mixed-use retail and residential project at the intersection of Innovation Avenue and Route 28 in Sterling. Upon completion, Dulles World Center will comprise 4.1 million square feet of office space in 11 buildings; 400,000 square feet of retail space; 1,300 residential units and a 350-room full service hotel. Construction on the center’s interchange began immediately. The interchange and all road improvements are privately funded by the developer, Dulles World Center LLC, and are expected to be finished in late 2012. Dewberry is the project designer/engineer, and Shirley Contracting will serve as general contractor.
