    Does anyone know what is going up on Shellhorn Rd? It is near the Loudoun County Parkway, heading towards the Home Depot. They are grading the land adjacent to the MCI campus.

    I think it is going to be a power sub station for Dominion

    Won't this be another beatiful thing to look at as well as the transmision lines crossing waxpool by the creek as you see these giant pices of metal poles laying on the ground there, that soon will dot the landscape to make our landscape look like a Gozilla movie.

    When you run your A/C, kitchen appliances and numerous TVs, I doubt you are thinking about beauty and power lines.

    Besides, I love Godzilla movies! :)

    Speaking of Shellhorn Road, I would love to know why Faulkner Road is still blocked off even though it goes all the way through the Ashburn Road already. And what is going to happen to Waxpool once Faulkner eventually connects to Shellhorn Road to Broadlands Blvd? And when in the world are they going to pave Shellhorn\Broadlands Blvd?? It's quite annoying.

    The county or VDOT is probably not yet ready for it to go through to Ashburn Rd.

    From what we have been told on the HOA Board, the Broadlands Blvd connection is being held up by the HOA of that subdivision there at Ashburn Rd and Faulkner where its blocked at Ashburn Rd. Van Metre is waiting on that HOA to sign off on the right of way. There was an issue with one of the landowners along that route also, but that supposedly has been taken care of.
