Monarch Luxury Condo Building Starts Above-Ground Construction

TYSONS, VA — The 20-story Monarch luxury condominium tower in Tysons has started above-ground construction. The project is expected to deliver by mid-2023.

Monarch, located at 887 Jones Branch Drive, is part of the 19-acre Arbor Row community. Arbor Row is the former site of 1970s-era office buildings that will ultimately become over 1,400 residences and 35,000 square feet of restaurants and retail.

The Monarch project faced a construction pause in 2020 but has presold 30 percent of its units. Contracts for three units set records for sales prices in the Tysons market at above $3.5 million each. The developer is Renaissance Centro, the general contractor is Hoar Construction, and the architect is WDG Architecture. Sales are managed by the The Mayhood Company.

The 94 units feature over a dozen floor plans between 880 and 4,090 square feet. Each floor features two to seven units, some with direct elevator access. Units include white oak flooring throughout, luxury bathrooms, large closets, walk-in showers and spacious living rooms. Kitchens will feature oversized waterfall kitchen islands, quartz countertops and full-height backsplashes, concealed-panel Miele appliances, and modern European cabinetry. All units except studios have floor-to-ceiling windows and expansive balconies or terraces. Optional upgrades include natural stone selections, automated shades, heated floors, wine refrigeration and more. Prices range from the $600,000s to $4.1 million.

Residents can also access shared indoor and outdoor spaces, including a landscaped garden terrace with a pool, lounge seating and grill stations. The terrace will overlook a trail leading to Arbor Row Stream Valley Park. A residents' lounge will be next to the garden terrace, offering a fireplace, book nook, bar area, and catering kitchen. Other amenities include a fitness center with high-end exercise equipment, a stretching area, spa-like locker rooms, and personalized fitness options, as well as a 30th floor private dining room with 180-degree views of the area.

The building will have 24-hour resident services through a white-glove concierge and lobby attendant. Residents' guests will have access to a hospitality suite. Covered parking and over 6,000 square feet of ground-level retail completes the Monarch space.

Monarch will be located one block from the Ritz-Carlton hotel, the Tysons Corner Metro station, restaurants and Tysons Galleria, which is in the process of adding a Bowlero and upscale movie theater with in-seat dining service and a bar.

Prospective buyers can see a fully furnished 1,950-square-foot two-bedroom and den model unit at the Monarch sales center at 1650 Tysons Boulevard (adjacent to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel and Tysons Galleria).
