About Fairlington
An unincorporated neighborhood in south of Arlington County, Fairlington was built in the 1940’s financed by the Defense Homes Corporation during World War II as a large brick-townhousing project, named after Fairfax and Arlington where it is located. Because of this Fairlington has been listed in the National Register of Historic Places and Virginia Landmarks Register in 1999.
The brick style colonial homes of Fairlington
Fairlington was owned by a friend of President George Washington, John Carlyle in 1756 and then occupied by the military in 1861 to 1870 before being owned by Hartford Insurance in the 1960’s till 1972 when the apartments were developed. Fairlington now highlights the brick colonial styles of the past carefully designed by architects Kenneth Franzheim and Alan B. Mills that had enhanced the features of Fairlington.

Hayfield — proximity to Fort Belvoir
Between Newington and Franconia is the “metropolis” of Hayfield. Downtown Hayfield consists of a single strip mall, Hayfield Plaza Shopping Center. The neighborhood of Hayfield is in a quiet eddy where there is not much in the way of traffic or noise. The southern side of Hayfield is nearly completely surrounded by Huntley Meadow Park which only adds to the quiet, suburban feel of Hayfield. A US Coast Guard station at the center of the community, but the trees and parks of the station feel more like a park than a base.
Hayfield is close to Hilltop Driving Range and Golf Course. The shops of Kingstowne Towne Center is nearby for much of your shopping needs. Hayfield is also very close to several gates of Fort Belvoir. Commuters who live in Hayfield but work in the city, most often make their way to town down Telegraph Road or Beulah Street in Franconia.
Hayfield Elementary and Hayfield Secondary are both located near “downtown Hayfield”. Telegraph KinderCare is nearby and a little further away towards Kingstowne is La Petite, another childcare center.
