Susanne Andersson-Tosado speaks before the Reston Association Governance Committee. The Reston resident is leading a group that opposes the redevelopment plans of the St. Johns Wood apartment by owners Bozzuto Development Group. “The plans are not in keeping with the area. It’s too dense, too large, and not of a design to blend into the neighbourhood,” she declares.

Reston Residents Oppose Apartment Redevelopment

180 residents sign petition opposing St. Johns development proposal in its current version.

St. Johns Wood is a sprawling campus of nine three-story buildings that house 250 apartments on about 14 acres of land nestled in the woods off Center Harbor Rd. in Reston - and that is exactly how some residents of the complex, and many of their neighbors in surrounding clusters of apartments, townhomes and single family dwellings would like to see it stay. A group about 35-strong made their opinions known at the Reston Association (RA) Governance Committee meeting on Tuesday, Aug. 9, at the RA offices.
