The County Board has provided a three-year extension to redevelopment plans for a shuttered Days Inn hotel on Arlington Blvd.

In a 5-0 vote last night (Wednesday), County Board members provided more time for the owner — a limited-liability company that has been unable to move forward on redevelopment plans at 2201 Arlington Blvd — to attempt to sell the 2.4-acre parcel with the approved site plan in place.

The 57-year-old Highlander Motor Inn is now closed and will be torn down to make room for a CVS store, owner Billy Bayne tells ARLnow.

The two-story motel at 3336 Wilson Blvd, near Clarendon, has been closed since December. Bayne expects demolition to begin on the building in March and the CVS to open in the fall.
