Lerner Enterprises has announced a new project for Dulles Town Center: Nokes Plaza, a 56,000-square-foot office, medical, retail development within The Corporate Office Park.
The Rockville, Md.-based company, one of Washington, D.C.'s largest private real estate developers, said the project would include four buildings and two retail pads. It will be visible from the intersection of Nokes and City Center Boulevards.

The buildings also will be within walking distance of Windmill Parc at Dulles Town Center, a luxury apartment home community currently under construction. Work will begin this summer, and construction is scheduled to be done by fall 2015.

“Nokes Plaza, when complete, will add much needed medical, office and service oriented retail options for the thousands of residents and office workers within Dulles Town Center,” Mark D. Lerner, a principal of Lerner, said in a statement.  “Dulles Town Center will continue to expand and add amenities in the future to serve the growth of Loudoun and Western Fairfax counties.” 

The Polleo Group of Reston designed Nokes Plaza. The building will be situated among a tree conservation area with park-like plazas between each building. Gittleson Zuppas Commercial Realty Inc. of Bethesda, Md., will lead the medical and office leasing while Lerner will spearhead retail leasing.

Dulles Town Center is a 554-acre, mixed-use development.  Serving as its anchor is Dulles Town Center Mall, the largest shopping and dining destination in Loudoun County. It has 1.4 million square feet of retail with several national tenants such as Nordstrom, Macy’s and Lord & Taylor.
