If Tysons were in many states, it’d be the largest downtown business district in the state. The nation’s largest “edge city” has a plan to become a “dynamic,” walkable place. How is that going? How does the coronavirus pandemic change the way Tysons will evolve? And do you want to write about that?
Our editor, George Jordan, with help from a few others has been covering Tysons for almost a year, but has moved up in his role for the organization and is now our primary editor for the publication. Therefore, we are looking for one or two new people to take over this beat at this pivotal time for the future of the region’s largest experiment in transforming a chain of suburban office parks and malls into a place for people to live, work, play, and more.
We’re looking for one or two people to write a total of four stories per month. Writers should have some writing experience in journalism or other settings and ideally some urban planning or economic development knowledge. If this sounds like you or someone you know, we hope you will take a look at the full job description and apply or pass it on!
