A 16.2-acre site along the south side of the Arlington Expressway best known for its former identities as Jim’s Place, the FBI headquarters and Offshore Power Systems is fenced off and under redevelopment for housing.
The former FBI building is under extensive renovation, while the two other office buildings, still labeled Three Oaks Plaza, are vacant and extensively vandalized with graffiti and broken and missing windows.
