Crystal City/Pentagon City is a small area in Arlington that extends west from Reagan National Airport to I-395 and south from the Pentagon to South Glebe Road. Also known as the new Amazon headquarters.
The housing inventory in 22202 consists largely of high-rise condo buildings, and a handful of single-family neighborhoods – Aurora Hills and Arlington Ridge. The big shopping centers here are Fashion Centre at Pentagon City and Pentagon Row. The retail and restaurant options here are plentiful.
Where’s the small-town community vibe Arlington is known for? Well 22202 has that, too. Virginia Highlands Park has baseball/softball fields, basketball courts, and a spray ground for cooling off in the summer. There is a neighborhood public library, as well. Prospect Hill Park in Arlington Ridge is a popular spot to take in the national Fourth of July fireworks.
Most notable is the area’s close proximity to DC, and major highway arteries around the Beltway. The two major metro stations here are Pentagon City and Crystal City, that service the Blue and Yellow lines. Crystal City and Pentagon City have plenty of bus options into DC and points west. And of course, Reagan National Airport sits right on the Potomac River.
