[quote=Anonymous]It's not similar to Burke and is in very close proximity to Springfield, if you like that area.  The prison has been repurposed with art galleries and there is quite a bit of retail development happening within what was formerly the interior grounds.  As others have said, there are good parks close by.  There is a section of Lorton that is close to and off of 123 that has larger houses in a less dense space, and less of a Lorton feel, than near the prison.  The schools are FCPS and the middle and high school are new, which is nice.  The landfill is scheduled to be closed soon and is slated to be taken over by Alpine X and will become Fairfax Peak, which is a year round indoor ski and winter arena.  This will likely bring better services to the area along with more jobs.  It will, in turn, make property values go up, bu the traffic is alredy pretty bad on Lorton Road, and if that is not addressed will be a total nightmare.  As for commuting, there is an easily acessable HOT lane if you can afford it and need to get to Tysons, etc.  If commuting to DC, the VRE has a station there and it is very reliable and stressfree.
