Central Place is mixed-use development, consisting primarily of CEB Tower (headquarters of CEB Inc.) to the south, and a residential tower to the north, with a plaza between them in Arlington, Virginia. The office tower is home to Virginia's first public observation deck, located nearly 490 ft (149 m) above sea level,[2] and will be the highest public location in the Washington metropolitan area.[4]

History

Design began in 2002 and construction was set to begin in 2008, but was delayed to 2014 due to the Great Recession in the United States.[1] The complex is located directly above the Rosslyn station of the Washington Metro and some bedrock, presenting engineering challenges.[1]
