Photograph by David Coleman. Arlington Memorial Bridge is a significant neoclassical structure that spans the Potomac River, connecting Washington DC to Arlington, Virginia. Completed in 1932, the bridge serves as a symbolic connection between the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery, representing the unity of the nation following the Civil War. Looking across the bridge towards Arlington House, which was originally the home of Confederate General Robert E. Lee, visitors can appreciate its commanding position on a hilltop within Arlington National Cemetery. Arlington House, now a national historic site, offers sweeping views of Washington DC and is a prominent reminder of the nation's history. The bridge itself is an important piece of civic architecture, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and provides a popular route for visitors traveling between the National Mall and Arlington's historical landmarks.
