Join me as I explore the Reston Town Center (RTC). I'm finally able to go out and take more walks as the weather improves. It's been way too hot and humid in the last two weeks. I hope you enjoy this video!

Reston Town Center is located 6 miles (9.7 km) east of Washington Dulles International Airport and 21 miles (34 km) west of Washington, D.C., just north of Exit 12 (Reston Parkway) of the Dulles Toll Road (VA-267). Construction of the second phase of the Silver Line of the Washington Metro is underway, with the Reston Town Center station planned to be operational in April 2021.
Reston Town Center is designed with open avenues and wide sidewalks. It is built around Fountain Square, a medium-sized open area between the surrounding shops. The main landmark in Fountain Square is Mercury Fountain, designed by Saint Clair Cemin. Directly in front of Mercury Fountain is Market Street, and across the street is the Pavilion. The Pavilion doubles as a covered open-air ice rink during the winter and as a concert and event venue throughout the rest of the year. Adjacent to the fountain are the One & Two Fountain Square buildings with the One & Two Freedom Square buildings located one block to the west. Street parking is available throughout, and seven public parking garages surround the center. As of 2019, Reston Town Center's "downtown" area has more than 50 retail shops and 30 restaurants. In addition, Reston Town Center has a 13-screen cinema which was renovated in 2012, and a Hyatt Regency hotel. Since the most recent major phase of construction in 2009, Reston Town Center, in the past known more for its shopping, dining, and entertainment, has developed into a location for businesses and residences also. High-rise condominiums have led to an influx of young professionals.
Readers of Northern Virginia Magazine chose Reston Town Center for its 2008 top ten list "Hip to be Where", and it was dubbed a "downtown for the 21st century."

Looks a lot like Portland Oregon, but cleaner.

I saw you commented on the Ballston video that it looked like Seattle. Would you say that the urban areas in northern Virginia look like the pacific northwestern cities across the board? I’ve never heard that before, and I find it interesting. I’ve never been further west than Nevada, so I wouldn’t know firsthand. I am native to Reston, though.

@jonahs4819 Hello, Jonah. I will say that Northern Virginia does remind me sort of like Portland, Oregon. But it's two different worlds. If you haven't been to Oregon or Seattle. I suggest you take the trip. I've been a many of places but I can't wrap my hands around the beauty. The quietness of the northwest. Northern Virginia is also absolutely gorgeous. It's highly underrated. Also. Check out Cannon Beach. Portland is not a big city, but I enjoyed it better than Seattle. Seattle is humongous.
