At the end of last month, Northrop Grumman decided to move their headquarters out of California to Virginia to be closer to their biggest client, the Federal Government. This decision was announced nearly a month ago with the additional announcement of just where they are moving in the Northern Virginia area imminent. Most of the local media reported that there was one of two locations for Northrop Grumman in play. in Falls Church and Arlington.
However, there's been dead silence on this issue.
Could this mean that Alexandria, considered a long shot by many, is still be in play with Northrop Grumman?
Alexandria, working with the Commonwealth of Virginia, has partnered with JM Zell Partners to try and lure Northrop Grumman to the Carlyle Plaza One development for sometime. While it would be sad to see this project go to either of the other two sites, I think the silence speaks volumes. Let's hope there's good news for Alexandria about this.
Thoughts?
