L.F. Jennings, a Falls Church and Richmond-based general contractor, has started work on the first phase of the 370,000-square-foot Hilltop Village Center in Alexandria. The 33-acre Hilltop site at the intersection of Telegraph Road and Beulah Street has a 100-year history. Originally a chicken farm, it was later used as a quarry, a landfill and a golf course. Hilltop will be a mixed-use development.
The builder says it will construct four buildings for a total of 125,000 square feet of retail. This phase will coincide with the construction of a 140,000-square-foot Wegmans grocery store. The project will also include two bank sites and a future office building. Hilltop is about 67 percent preleased. Wegmans and other retailers anticipate a spring 2014 opening. Hilltop team members include KLNB Retail, Rounds Vanduzer Architects and Dewberry Engineers.
