In 1944 Joseph Cherner established the Shirlington Corporation and had several stores built in the area. In the 80's the area was home to more office buildings. By 2000 Shirlington began to boom with opportunity. Today Shirlington is nicknamed the "Arts and Entertainment District". There are plenty of things to do in Shirlington from shopping, entertainment, and dining. WETA-TV, WETA-FM and USPTO satellite offices are located in Shirlington. Shirlington is served by the Shirlington Bus Station and is a transfer center for Metrobus and Arlington Transit. Commuters have no trouble moving about as extensive network of Metro bus routes shuttles them to and from Pentagon City and Crystal City Metro stations as well as other locations. The Shirlington Station is situated at 2975 South Quincy Street.
