A five-acre public park is proposed for The Mile in Tysons. Plans filed by Link Logistics show a large lawn, playground, concert stage, cafe, sports courts and food-truck area at 7925 Jones Branch Drive.
The design is detailed, but the park is not approved, funded or under construction. Fairfax County staff had not accepted the filing for formal review as of July 22.
Signature Park at The Mile: Quick facts
What is proposed for The Mile’s Signature Park?
Link Logistics filed a detailed development plan for the central park promised as part of The Mile, the large redevelopment of the former ExxonMobil campus in Tysons.
The proposal organizes the site around a broad lawn and a series of smaller activity spaces. Paths and terraces would connect the park to nearby buildings and the future Tysons Community Circuit.
What amenities are planned?
36,000-square-foot lawn
The largest open space is designed for everyday use and community events. Filed plans show room for flexible seating and gatherings.
Playground and sports courts
A 16,000-square-foot playground and two sports pitches would give the park active recreation space for children and adults.
Stage and plaza
A 4,250-square-foot plaza and stage could host concerts and programmed events. The schedule and operator have not been decided.
Cafe and food trucks
The plan includes a 1,040-square-foot cafe, outdoor seating and a separate area where food trucks could park.
Where would Signature Park be in Tysons?
The site is at 7925 Jones Branch Drive, inside The Mile development near the Capital Beltway. The broader property is being rebuilt with housing, offices, shops and public spaces.
Fairfax County has long identified a major public park as part of this section of Tysons. The proposed design would put that park near new development while tying it into a larger walking and biking loop.
Is Signature Park approved?
No. The plan has been filed, but county staff have not accepted it for formal review. That means detailed agency comments, revisions and public decisions are still ahead.
Proposed, not under construction
The drawings show what Link Logistics wants to build. They do not establish a construction date, operating schedule or final list of amenities.
When could the Tysons park open?
No opening date has been announced. The county first needs to accept and review the application, and the applicant may revise the design in response to staff comments.
Funding, permits, construction sequencing and the pace of development around The Mile will also affect the timeline. The next reliable update will come when Fairfax County formally accepts the plan or publishes review comments.
