Arlington Memorial Bridge and Avenue serve as a ceremonial entrance to Washington, DC, connecting the Lincoln Memorial to Arlington National Cemetery. Designed to symbolize national unity, the bridge features neoclassical architectural elements and memorials honoring military personnel, reflecting the strength and valor of the nation.

The bridge underwent a significant rehabilitation from 2018 to 2020, marking one of the largest infrastructure projects in National Park Service history. This restoration not only preserved the bridge's historical character but also enhanced its role as a vital link between the North and South.
