Columbia Pike
Columbia Pike is Arlington’s original Main Street with an organically multicultural flair. Representing some of Arlington’s most exciting potential development, Columbia Pike is a mix of the old and new and of the small town yet global community. Columbia Pike truly represents Arlington’s diversity, with classic art deco buildings, specialty retail, mid-rise office space, friendly sidewalks and Arlington’s greatest concentration of ethnic restaurants. It all makes the Pike a unique living and working experience. Millions of dollars in capital improvements are underway, preserving the Pike’s urban feel and adding new, cohesive growth with new retail, residential and commercial development. Transportation improvements make travel safer and more accessible for everyone. So, pardon the dust during construction, but Columbia Pike is OPEN for business! We know it can be difficult getting around at times, but it’s worth the trip, even during construction.
A Bustling Commuter Corridor
Columbia Pike is the busiest commuter corridor in the entire Commonwealth of Virginia. More than 40,000 vehicles and 18,000 transit riders traverse the Pike every day.
Arlington’s Most Diverse ZIP Code
