The Washington Post reporter Fritz Hahn writes in the Going Out Guide that a new generation of developers and town-center planners want us to “Forget parking lots, traffic jams, even the malls. When you hear ‘Tysons’, they want the name to conjure memories of sunny rooftop beer gardens, DJs spinning at artsy pop-up bars, and concerts and musicals performed at a 1,600-seat theater, all of which are easily accessible by Metro, or just minutes from the Beltway”.
Hahn describes Capital One Hall: “The eye-catching building, just a block from the Metro, holds a 1,600-seat theater with three tiers and incredible sightlines from its cobalt blue chairs; the Vault, a 225-seat black box performance space; and an elegant, multitiered 15,000-square-foot lobby with a sweeping grand staircase, designed to hold corporate meetings and receptions as well as serve drinks at intermission”.
