Clarendon-Court House Walkabout

The Clarendon neighborhood was established in the early 1900s, when trolley service arrived in this part of Arlington.  The neighborhood became the economic center of the County by the 1950s. Immigrants from Vietnam and elsewhere opened shops and restaurants in the ‘70s and ‘80s, earning Clarendon the nickname “Little Saigon.” Today, this neighborhood is a dynamic and diverse urban village, featuring shops, restaurants, residences, and two Metro stops, surrounded by tree-lined blocks of charming early 20th-century homes.

Length: Approximately 2 miles, 2.3 miles with extension

Terrain: Mostly level

Car-Free Access: Clarendon or Court House Metro stations on the Orange Line, ART 41 or 42, Metrobus 38B

Clarendon Education Center on Clar. Blvd at Edgewood deserves a few words. The Dog Park is important to point out. Also N Garfield is not continuous thru Wash. Blvd.
