National Landing.

A district being built in real time around the easiest commute in the region.

National Landing is the umbrella name for the connected Crystal City, Pentagon City, and Potomac Yard corridor in Arlington, Virginia — home to Amazon’s HQ2, minutes from the Pentagon and Reagan National, and one of the fastest-growing employment hubs in the DMV. All three of CHG’s furnished homes sit inside it, which makes it the right place to start if you are weighing a 30-to-90-day stay.

National Landing is the name that ties Pentagon City, Crystal City, and Potomac Yard into one walkable corridor — and it’s the only district we operate in, deliberately. Concentrating here is what lets one operator finish and answer for every home to the same standard. You’re watching a place get built: Amazon’s second headquarters, a Virginia Tech campus rising, new towers and a new Metro stop. We grow with it, and we grow here first.

Field notes

What you only learn by being here

The detail a listing never carries — the things an operator who actually works National Landing would tell you over coffee.

01

HQ2 in the open

Amazon’s Met Park towers are already occupied and the spiraling Helix is on the boards — but at street level it reads as a new public plaza and dog run, not a corporate campus behind a fence.

02

Two anchors, one walk

Because the district folds two neighborhoods together, you get two grocery anchors and two Metro stations inside a single flat, walkable footprint — rare anywhere, almost unheard of this close to a capital.

03

The river is the backyard

The Mount Vernon Trail, Gravelly Point, and the Potomac waterfront run the entire eastern edge — the district’s unofficial gym, picnic ground, and sunset spot.

04

Built in real time

A stay here in 2026 is a stay inside a construction story; the cranes are part of the view, and the place will not look the same in two years.

Loved by locals

What a 30–90 day stay feels like in National Landing

The lived-in detail — groceries, dining, fitness, and getting around — so a longer stay is solved before you arrive, not figured out on day three.

A district, not a block

National Landing folds Crystal City and Pentagon City together, so you get two grocery anchors, two Metro stations, and a single walkable footprint.

Dining & culture

New restaurants, the weekend market, and waterfront events have made the district a place to live, not just commute through.

Outdoors

The Mount Vernon Trail, Gravelly Point plane-spotting, and the Potomac waterfront are all on the eastern edge.

Getting around

Two Metro stations, VRE, Bikeshare, and the airport at walking-distance scale make this the easiest car-free base in Northern Virginia.
