Intro to Ballston
About Ballston
This intersection has been a focal point since about 1740, when two roads were developed, one from the future site to Alexandria to the mouth of Pimmit Run, the other from Awbury’s Ferry (at the site of Rosslyn) to The Falls Church. The first came to be known as the Glebe Road because it passed the glebe of Fairfax Parish and in order to distinguish it from other roads to the Falls. The second was eventually named Wilson Boulevard in honor of President Wilson. The intersection became known as Ball’s Crossroads when Ball’s Tavern was established here in the early 1800s."Today Ballston is a busy urban community. Ballston is the first/last stop in Arlington's Ballston-Rosslyn Corridor. The hub of this area is the Ballston Common Mall at the Ballston Metro Station. There are many shops and restaurants in close proximity to this metro station.
