THE FNMA BUILDING EXPECTED TO BE LEVELED BY LATE FEBRUARY 2026
We are excited to announce that the demolition work on the FNMA building is going well, and the schedule points to the building being
leveled by late February 2026. The High Reach Demolition equipment has been used effectively to demo sections of the office building on the eastern side of the building, and it is now moving west, removing floors and exposing the building core. All construction materials stemming
from the demo are properly recycled or disposed of per environmental requirements.
The demolition of the garage structure is ongoing and will proceed in a counterclockwise fashion until the below-grade garage is removed. We
anticipate that the garage demolition work will continue through Q2 2026.
The concrete processing/recycling will begin in what was the lower level of the garage in February 2026. Crushed and broken concrete from the building and garage will remain staged on site, and the balance of demolished materials will be removed by truck via the southeast entrance to Sunset Hills Road.
The Demolition work is expected to mostly occur between Monday – Friday (except Federal Holidays), between the hours of 8 am and 4 pm.
All project stakeholders are closely monitoring the start times of the Demolition Team and their ancillary partners to ensure disruptions to the adjacent neighbors are kept to a minimum. We are working closely with Fairfax County to make sure the demolition activities are in compliance at all times. If you have any questions about the demolition project, please contact our Hotline at 703-423-0995.
We will keep everyone informed through this newsletter, on our social media accounts, and through direct emails. Thank you for your continued patience and cooperation as we move forward with this project!

- AMERICAN DREAM WAY PHASE TWO UPDATE -
THE DEMOLITION OF THE FNMA BUILDING IS GOING AS PLANNED!
We’re in the final phase of completing the infrastructure throughout Sunset Station, and the models have opened for VIP list tours! We are expecting to start work on the trail system in early 2026 in preparation for the spring season. The Sunset Station playground has been completed, but due to possible safety issues during the demolition of the FNMA building, the playground area will not be open for use. We anticipate it being opened by summer 2026.
We have partnered with Sustainability Matters, a grassroots environmental nonprofit, operating in Virginia’s rural Northern Shenandoah Valley and Piedmont regions, as well as in the DC suburbs, to explore potential meadows abutting our land on the WO&D trail that runs alongside the southern edge of Sunset Station. We are excited about the opportunity to support Sustainability Matters’ mission to introduce a meadow near
Sunset Station.
We look forward to sharing details of these efforts and how you can get involved in this exciting project in
upcoming newsletters and on our social media pages.
The models are open for those who are on the VIP list and have been well-received! Dream Finders Homes has sold several townhomes and has two Quick Move-In Homes for sale. Prices start at $829,990 for spacious townhomes with open floor plans with 3–5 bedrooms, 10-foot ceilings, and rooftop terraces. A grand opening is being planned for late January and will be open to the public. The 2nd building has bee released for
pre-sale and buyers are able to select their own interior finishes.
