GLENDALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
PS Business Parks, Inc. (NYSE:PSB) announced today the grand opening of Highgate, a luxury mid‐rise apartment community located in Tysons, Virginia. The 395-unit, 435,000 square foot building is located within the company’s 750,000 square foot, 45 acre office park known as The Mile.
Highgate, which the Company developed in a joint venture with KETTLER, began welcoming new residents this week. Final construction is anticipated to be completed in the fourth quarter of this year. Residents of Highgate will be within walking distance of Metro, world‐class shopping, restaurants, entertainment and major employers. Highgate also offers plenty of green space with two parks, a one‐mile loop for walkers and joggers and a walking trail connecting neighboring office and residential communities as well as the Metro station. The new community fronts Jones Branch Drive and will help transform this suburban office campus into a new urban community within a park-like setting which is unique in Tysons.
“The development of Highgate demonstrates our ability to transform a portion of one of our business parks in the first step of a new master plan in a premier location,” said Maria R. Hawthorne, President and CEO of PS Business Parks. “Highgate at The Mile will significantly improve our holdings in the dynamic Tysons, Virginia market, enhancing the amenities available to both our office and residential customers while increasing the value of the park.”
