Committee Considers Changes to Gannett Campus
McLean Planning and Zoning is reviewing an application from Gannett that would allow the company to lease out some of its office space in Tysons Corner.
Tysons Corner-based Gannett is looking to cash in on some empty office space by leasing part of its headquarters to other tenants. To that end, the company has applied for a special exception to its zoning conditions, which currently restrict use of the property to a single company. Gannett has also asked the county to allow a future tenant to use the helipad, currently located on top of a parking garage on the Gannett campus. Gannett was granted use of a helipad by the county when it built the headquarters more than a decade ago, but the helipad has never been used and Gannett does not own an helicopter. Current zoning stipulates only Gannett is allowed to use the helipad. The company now wants to transfer that right to a potential tenant…

They object to this helipad... which will be used once a year max. But that wont change the daily flights to CIA/Pentagon/Fort Belvoir etc. So what's the point? Just whine and complain to the easiest target I guess, its become the MCA way more ›
