Potomac Yard

(National Landing South)

Encompassing North Potomac Yard in Alexandria, Crystal City and the eastern portion of Pentagon City in Arlington, National Landing made its debut in November 2018 when both Amazon HQ2 and Virginia Tech’s Innovation Campus announced that they would make the newly branded area their home. The area has undergone significant growth in the past decade and has been approved for additional development that will transform it into a modern mixed-use, transit-oriented community, including the future Potomac Yard Metrorail station.
