Francis Scott Key Memorial
The Arlington Memorial Bridge, a significant gateway between Washington, D.C. and Arlington, Virginia, serves as a ceremonial entrance to the nation's capital while symbolizing national unity. Designed by the renowned architectural firm of McKim Mead and White, this neoclassical structure features granite facing, sculptures, and memorials, reflecting the valor and sacrifices of military personnel throughout American history.
Following a comprehensive rehabilitation from 2018 to 2020, the bridge was restored to enhance its historical character and national significance. Visitors can enjoy scenic walks or bicycle rides across the bridge, connecting key memorial sites, including the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery.
