Ballston-Virginia Square, located between Clarendon and East Falls Church, is a high-rise and transit-oriented Arlington neighborhood with a Metro spine and a walkable retail grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Wilson Blvd and N Glebe Rd, where coffee counters, chef-driven dining rooms, and small storefronts spill light onto wide sidewalks. Ballston Quarter sets a modern indoor-outdoor rhythm, while Arlington Cinema & Drafthouse keeps a local marquee feel. Virginia Square’s academic edge shows at George Mason University’s Arlington Campus, framed by glass towers and mid-century apartment blocks. Pocket parks and the Custis Trail stitch the streets to bikes and joggers. Metro entrances at Ballston-MU and Virginia Square anchor daily movement.
