Arlington Ridge, located between the Pentagon and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, is a residential and historic Arlington neighborhood with sweeping Potomac River overlooks and a ridge-top park system. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the U.S. Marine Corps War Memorial (Iwo Jima), where memorial lawns, flag-lined paths, and steady foot traffic set a ceremonial tone. Mid-century brick colonials and tidy garden apartments share streets with mature trees and long, curving blocks. Arlington Ridge Park and the Netherlands Carillon frame skyline views and open-air concerts. The Pentagon Memorial adds a quiet, contemplative counterpoint to the area’s commuter rhythm. Trails link to the Mount Vernon Trail for waterfront walks and bike commutes.
