Arlington CountySituated only a few hundred feet across the Potomac River from Washington, D.C., shares a history with our nation's capital that connects the county to Washington, D.C. from its very origins. Originally part of the 10-mile square boundary of the District of Columbia, Arlington played a central role in the birth of our nation's capital and in the formation of our country. But few are aware of the deep ties that bind Arlington to Washington and the unbroken thread that weaves its way through our national fabric, beginning with our founding fathers and ending with our modern-day heroes. This is the story of Arlington. Historical Locations
