Dirt is moving
view high resolution photo here
If you have drive by the intersection of Route 33 East and Stone Spring Road anytime recently you have likely seen the mass grading that is under way. 
In the photo above:
  • Route 33 runs top to bottom on the left side of the photo.
     
  • Stone Spring Road runs left to right.
     
  • The near side of Stone Spring Road, where grading is just barely beginning, is the future location of a gas station / convenience store.
     
  • The far side of Stone Spring Road, adjoining Preston Lake, is the future location of high end apartments being built by a developer out of Charlottesville - though not all of the land being graded will be used for these apartments.  See below.
Flipping the view around to the other direction -- below is my understanding of the intended use of the space....

Preston Lake

My understanding of this intended usage of this land is based on the Preston Lake master plan as shown below, updated as of December 2016....

Preston Lake

The area that is currently being graded will include the area shown below surrounded by a dashed line.  This will include 168 apartments in 12 buildings, as well as a clubhouse and pool.

Preston Lake

Part of the land being graded in the aerial photo at the top of this post is intended to be used for future commercial development.
