Default Commuter parking in Shirlington?

Does the new bus transit station in Shirlington have commuter parking available? If not, do the village garages permit all-day parking? Hard to tell from the development's website.

A lot of Shirlington has metered or designated parking for certain employees or customers before 5:00. There are a few spots you could park all day without anyone bothering your car but there's no actual designated commuter parking. If you lived in Shirlington, Parkfairfax or Fairlington then you wouldn't have a problem with parking at your own apartment complex or on the street in front of your townhouse; then you'd just take the bus to the Pentagon metro if you worked in the city. It'd be a 30-45 minute commute which isn't too bad considering you're not driving.

The bus in front of the home I'm looking at runs only twice an hour during rush hour and once an hour in the evening, to King St. station. Trying to figure out contingency plans or whether I should just keep hunting. It seems like Shirlington would be easy to drive to, but from what I can tell, there is no park & ride lot there.
