Located at 3465 South Utah Street, Arlington, VA 22206
As one of the largest condo communities in historic Fairlington, the aptly-named Fairlington Meadows complex covers 22 acres of grassy land, with 57 brick Colonial Revival buildings. Built in 1940, this village within the larger Fairlington Villages umbrella is part of what once was the largest apartment development in the nation. These days, it’s all about condos for sale, mostly in the shape of two and three-story townhouses, but with some one-bedroom flats as well.
Located at 3465 Utah Street in South Arlington, the front entrance to Fairlington Meadows is directly across the street from Fairlington Arbor. Other nearby residential community include Fairlington Commons, Green and Mews. These were all part of a sweeping plan by President Franklin Roosevelt to create housing for a massive influx of new federal workers during the lead-up to World War II. In the 1970s, however, the entire Fairlington Villages community converted to condos en masse.
