Burning Question: Why are they clearing land next to Costco?

Question: “Do you know what’s going in on the land next to Costco in Leesburg? They have begun clearing trees.” — Spencer D.

Indeed, the wooded property just to the east of the Leesburg Costco has been denuded of many of the trees and much of the underbrush and a construction zone is getting underway. We believe that parcel of land on Edwards Ferry Road NE is going to be a new townhome community called East Quarter. It’s tentatively slated to have 62 residences.

The name East Quarter may be new to some of you. It was previously known as River Creek Village but those plans changed over the years. East Quarter is described as “urban-inspired townhomes minutes from historic downtown Leesburg, which offer easy access to a vibrant culinary scene, fashionable boutiques, and antique shops.”

If you’ve got a Burning Question for The Burn about something you’ve spotted in the area related to roads, restaurants, retail or other things we cover, send it to  and we’ll see if we can get you an answer.

    Why is there no KFC in Leesburg ? The closest one to Western Loudoun was located in Purcellville and has since closed.

    There is a KFC in Aushburn. It’s not free standing. There is Taco Bell inside too. KFC there has everything you need. I go there quite a bit.
