Thank you George for finding this:

Looks like we are getting a new ramp in NoVA!

Project Description: This project provides for the development of a town park on property located adjacent to the Potomac River in northeast Leesburg. The park property was acquired in 2001 for park use. The first phase will include a 3/4 mile, two-lane park access road from Balls Bluff Road to the Potomac River, parking facilities, an accessible boat ramp, and other related improvements. The second phase, to be completed in Fall 2029, will include roadway upgrades, additional parking, picnic pavilion, upgrade to the existing silos, and trail improvements.

From their Assistant Project Manager: "We anticipate completion of phase 1 and reopening of the park, including the boat ramp, this summer."

Pretty cool! Is the ramp a regular boat ramp or kayak/canoe only?

I saw it. It looked pretty big, but the whole park rendering made me think it was smaller. That is a great addition to access points.
