About

National Landing is the name adopted in 2018 for the Crystal City, Pentagon City, and Potomac Yard neighborhoods of Arlington and Alexandria, Virginia — the district selected as the site of Amazon’s second headquarters (HQ2). The rebrand originated with the Crystal City Business Improvement District and has since become the name used by local government, developers, and press covering the area.

This site aggregates official press releases, county filings, and BID announcements about the National Landing district in one place — development updates, permits, openings, and public notices — with links back to original sources. It does not republish or compete with the reporting of outlets like ARLnow or Washingtonian; for original local journalism, read them directly.

Posts tagged “Original” are pieces written for this site, including a periodic “State of National Landing” review tracking what has actually opened or been built against the promises made during the HQ2 announcement. Everything else is aggregated from public press releases and official sources, with attribution and a link to the original.
