Rosslyn Real Estate: Arlington Homes and Condos

http://www.metroarlington.com/

Nicknamed "Manhattan on the Potomac" - Rosslyn is the first neighborhood along the Metro Arlington corridor located on the banks of the Potomac River. Right across the bridge from Georgetown and the National Mall, Rosslyn is home to over 25,000 employees and 8 million square feet of office space. The towering skyscrapers have become a major business center and the skyline of DC.

With the recent construction of the Residences at Waterview, Wooster and Mercer Lofts and the Turnberry Tower, Rosslyn has capitalized on its world-class location and positioned itself as Arlington's high-end residential Real Estate destination.

Residential Real Estate in Rosslyn can essentially be broken into two corridors. Perched behind the Iwo Jima monument, Prospect House, The Weslie, Monument Place and Memorial Overlook offer panoramic views of the Potomac River, National Mall and all of DC. Exiting the Rosslyn metro station and heading east towards Courthouse, the Atrium and Belvedere Condominiums offer equally fantastic views, while Terrace Lofts and 1800 Wilson offer boutique mid-rise homes. For townhome living, the brownstone style homes in Highgate and Palisades Park boast up to 3400 square feet of luxurious living.

Outstanding restaurants and bars populate the Rosslyn landscape. Enjoy wood oven pizza at Piola, grab a legendary burger at Ray's Hell Burgers, taste authentic Mexican cuisine at Guajillo, crack open some crabs at the Quarter Deck or indulge in a gourmet dinner on the riverside patio of Domaso -- just to name a few of the unique and locally owned businesses in Rosslyn.
Foodies also enjoy the local flavor at the weekly Thursday Farmers Market which offers locally grown produce, baked goods and live entertainment.
Rosslyn is a great launching point from which to enjoy the DC area's nightlife. Start the evening at one of the neighborhood's establishments such as The Continental and Rhodeside Grill. Then take a short stroll across the Key Bridge to Georgetown. Or head East along Wilson Blvd. to Arlington's Clarendon neighborhood: less than a mile away.

Escaping the hustle and bustle amidst the sleek glass and steel of Rosslyn is easy with 12 community parks and trails, you can walk, jog or jump on your bike to enjoy the great outdoors. The Custis and Mount Vernon trails link Rosslyn to Washington, DC, Old Town Alexandria and the Virginia countryside. Teddy Roosevelt Island is an 88.5 acre National Park connected by bridge to Rosslyn. And just across the key bridge in Georgetown, is the 184 mile C+O Canal trail and several boat launches for canoeing, kayaking and fishing.
