Ownership of the most prominent development project in Tysons Corner splintered recently after a deal between two of its principals - the Cherner family of auto dealers and developer Aaron Georgelas - fell through.
The Cherners agreed to a contract with Georgelas in 2006 that would allow the family's auto dealerships to be included in the Tysons developer's plans for a 6 million-square-foot high-rise development at the corner of Leesburg Pike and Spring Hill Road. The two since worked side-by-side to argue for county development rules that would permit an urban Tysons Corner and to integrate their properties.
