Plans to redevelop a strip mall along Columbia Pike are back in the works after a hiatus.

Toll Brothers filed an application with Arlington County earlier this week to construct a six-story residential building with 262 apartments, 311 parking spaces and approximately 16,000 square feet of ground-floor retail at 2601 Columbia Pike (map). MV+A Architects designed the project.

The development team stated that the focus of this new project will be the retail, which will run along the entirety of the building facing Columbia Pike. 

"This large 'Main Street' retail base is designed to create a critical mass of new retail uses at this location in the Town Center focused on accessibility, walkability and viability," documents filed with Arlington County stated. 

This is not the first redevelopment pitched for this address. Back in 2021, a six-story building with 248 apartments and a grocery store was proposed, however that development stalled as the grocery tenant for the project fell through.
