When you live in DC, you become much closer to your immediate neighborhood. I used to live in Rosslyn (closer to Iwo Jima) and found myself metroing into DC every time I wanted to go out. Clarendon is fun, but feels very bro-ey, which can get old. The issue with Rosslyn going forward is that it is a bottleneck due to the convergence of the Orange and Blue lines. There has been talk of adding another Rosslyn station (possibly on Fort Myers Drive) as well as another tunnel across the Potomac. Given Metro's limited funding at the moment, I doubt this will happen for another 20 years at the soonest.

Nice! So glad to see some residential coming to Rosslyn.  That spot has so much potential due to its central location and easy access.

Looks like two 30 story towers are planned for Rosslyn.

I can’t keep up with all the construction around the metro area but I see some towers peaking up in Crystal City. Not sure if it’s just a renovated tower or new build.
