Loudoun Civic and Transit Center at Moorefield Station
Advantages of the LCTC Solution
Furthers County transportation planning
The proposed site for the Loudoun Civic and Transit Center is at the heart of the 600-acre Moorefield Station community, which is designed around mass-transit and integrated into the County’s existing bus and road transportation system. Additionally, the site sits directly at the center of the County’s population, reducing total customer travel times when accessing County services.
Resolves a workspace shortage through a flexible 100-year solution
A grant of 27 contiguous transit-adjacent acres addresses the County’s current and future office space needs. This dedication also provides ample space for cultural arts, entertainment and other community oriented facilities clustered about a center and transit-services civic campus.
Creates a center for civic activity and a source of community identity and pride
The LCTC proposal represents an important opportunity for positive community impact that will not repeat itself for decades. The new Loudoun Civic and Transit Center will become a social engine for the community, promote a positive image for the County and stimulate high quality community development in the surrounding neighborhoods.
Provides the County economic value now and into the future
The County’s existing leases will be consolidated at an attractive capital lease rate, lease cost escalation will be eliminated and the County will retain ownership of valuable land, buildings and public open spaces at the end of the financing period. LCTC’s proposed plan generates a significant incremental benefit to County tax-payers.
Delivers a world-class design
Plaza spaces are physically and visually separated from the integrated high-volume transit and transportation linkages. Retail, commercial and civic uses are thoughtfully connected, creating an exciting public destination that will buzz with life. Building architecture reflects the County of Contrasts motto with elements both modern and traditional, but all emoting a presence that is civic and inviting.
