Crystal City

Not Just Smart, Brilliant

Crystal City, Arlington’s largest downtown, is transforming. Bright and vibrant, Crystal City features an abundance of fine restaurants, cafes, specialty stores, outdoor movie nights, bike trails and the Helen Hayes Award winning theater, Arena Stage. With its quick access to D.C. and proximity to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, the area attracts nonprofits, artists, tourists and residents. Already an award-winning, mixed-use development with stunning views of the Washington monuments, Crystal City boasts more than 4,600 hotel rooms and 170,000 square feet of meeting space, as much office space as many medium-sized cities, plus access to the heart of the U.S. defense industry, the Pentagon.
