Urban and less than a mile from downtown, Washington, DC, Arlington, Virginia, is revered as an-easy-to-walk-and-bike community and leader in environmental programs seen from its flower-filled parks to its green-topped buildings.
It’s rare to see the stop-start bumper-to-bumper traffic in Arlington that can be a day-long challenge elsewhere in DC, due to 11 Metro subway stops, busses, bike and walking paths within its 26 square miles.
Awarded by numerous organizations as an ideal walking and biking community, smart-growth planning and for its environmental-friendly programs, including “green” buildings and rooftop gardens, Arlington also connects to DC, Alexandria, VA, and its striking old town, the Potomac River and Maryland via major thoroughfares, such as 66, 395, Route 50 and the George Washington Memorial Parkway.
GW Parkway is a scenic road paradise bordering Arlington on the Potomac from its paths that follow the river to Theodore Roosevelt Island, views of the DC Monuments, stopping points at magnificent gardens credited to former First Lady Ladybird Johnson’s beautification projects, to restaurants with panoramic views where you can watch sailboats from the nearby marina. Watch Independence Day firework displays from parks at historic settings or skyscrapers with rooftop dining rooms.
Best-known internationally for Arlington National Cemetery, the Pentagon and the Iwo Jima Memorial, Arlington is loved by its residents, many second-generation, who call the County’s dozens of active communities home.
Among the notables is former vice president and environmental leader Al Gore.
Affluent yet protective of affordable housing, Arlington is diverse and a haven for both retirees and young techies. Stable economically due to its proximity to federal agencies and new and growing government contractors, amid estates and McMansions are row houses, garden units and mid- and high-rise condos for sale and rent.
The Rosslyn Mountains, in the neighborhood of Rosslyn in the north of Arlington, are actually a conglomerate of high-rises known for towering at or above the Washington Monument because no building in DC is allowed to stand higher. Glass and steel facades, reflecting the spires of post-Revolutionary War Georgetown University across Key Bridge and the River, they join historic Arlington neighborhoods. Rows of detached or semi-detached brick housing for the numbers of Americans who migrated to the metropolitan area to help in the war efforts are often turned into condos.
Converted war housing mixes with family homes in several neighborhoods whereas skyscraper units line Wilson Boulevard in North Arlington and Pentagon City with premiere appliances, appointments, gyms, hot tubs and concierges.
Arlington, especially the north and the south neighborhoods of Pentagon City and Shirlington, are meccas for shopping, with malls and boutiques, gourmet grocers, nightlife, showcasing national acts and local followings, and metro area favorite restaurants, fine and casual, ethnic and American steakhouse. Find throughout Arlington, East Indian, Latin and Middle Eastern markets and year-round music, arts and food festivals. Arlington is also respected for its high-quality school system, art galleries, local theater and independent film venues. Pentagon City and Crystal City are populated by the military for their close proximity to the Pentagon.
Neighborhoods include Courthouse, Clarendon, Ballston, Columbia Pike, Westover, Cherrydale, the Palisades, Fairlington, Lyon Park, Bluemont, Arlington Forest and Arlington Heights. |
