It is more than just a few buildings by a mall. When I read the article it was by office space and workers. South Park is an entire neighborhood and business district akin to Buckhead with smaller towers and no rail service.....I will find and post the article.
Wait what? You also compared South Park to Buckhead?? Southpark is big time in NC but it's not even in the same stratosphere as Buckhead.
Tysons Corner is the 12th Largest Business District in the nation and is booming big time.... Tysons skyline already is larger and taller than Raleigh's (but more spread out so it looks quite expansive) Add in Heavy Rail to DC and Arlington, 2 yuge malls, and the Silver Line Extension will soon be a few stops from Dulles and go way out to Ashburn. https://www.insidenova.com/news/busi...cc4df3735.html <--- This is just 1 development that's U/C, all of the buildings, and it's not even the biggest an it's one of a few that is the same scale.

Tysons Corner has been voted the 12th largest business district in the United States and is the largest business district of Fairfax County, with 26.4 million square feet of office space. Tysons is home to many companies listed on the Fortune 500 list: IBM, MicroStrategy, AT&T, Boeing, Hilton Worldwide, Booz Allen Hamilton, Capital One, Deloitte, Ernst & Young, Freddie Mac, Gannett (USA Today), The MITRE Corp., the National Automobile Dealers Association, PriceWaterhouseCoopers, SAIC, Northrop Grumman, and Sun Microsystems. The following companies are headquartered in Fairfax County, 5 of which are located in the heart of Tysons business district.
Buckhead seems more residential, Tysons seems more office IMO.
But in any event.... SouthPark isn't anywhere in the same league as Tysons. Single Developments are larger than SouthPark probably...
Edit: (I don't know how place is "voted" big. But I've seen the figure thrown around a few times. Maybe it's wrong? but it definitely is a heavyweight.)

Buckhead has about 16-17million sqft of office depending on which report you choose to read. Southpark has like 5.6m. DTR has 5.2m of rentable office space but that doesn't include the additional like 2m of government office space that leasing agencies don't put in their quarterly reports. Thats from CRBEs market outlook.
I think DTRs total is like 7.4m from the the Alliance's last report. With another 1m under construction currently.

Here we go...., I am saying that SouthPark is Charlotte's version of Buckhead...they are similar but of course there are differences. Buckhead definitely has taller buildings and a larger skyline and of course being in Atlanta is bigger...
