New Iconic Sign Installed at Central Park in Fredericksburg

A crew installs a new 160-foot sign above Fredericksburg's Central Park shopping center on Feb. 5, 2025.

The sign, which overlooks Interstate 95, marks a significant milestone in ongoing efforts to modernize the retail hub. It is a refreshed version of the shopping center’s original signage, which has stood since its opening 30 years ago.

Steven Crews, a spokesman for Central Park, confirmed that the updated sign is part of a broader initiative to enhance the shopping experience. “Modernizing the ‘Big Red’ sign to match the motif of the new I-95 sign, as well as updating directional signs throughout the complex, is all part of our vision for the future of Central Park,” Crews said.

After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”

Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
