Arlington Ridge is a neighborhood in Arlington County, Virginia. It is bordered on the north by The Pentagon, on the west by the Army Navy Country Club, and on the south the Alexandria. The main thoroughfare is the eponymous Arlington Ridge Road, a mansion-lined boulevard that, due to its high elevation, offers views of Washington, D.C., and the surrounding areas.
Arlington Ridge is home to two historical points of interest, the Hume School, which has been named to the National Register of Historic Places and houses the Arlington Country Historical Society and Museum, and Fort Scott, an Arlington County Historic District that is currently the site of Fort Scott Park.
