Huntington

Few communities in Virginia have a history as closely tied to the expansion of metropolitan Washington as Huntington. This Fairfax County residential community sits beside Cameron Run, shortly upstream from where the stream reaches the Potomac River near Alexandria. Its streets developed as Washington’s suburbs spread southward across the river, and Huntington station, opened in 1983, anchors the southern end of Metrorail’s Yellow Line. The rail link connects the neighborhood to the capital region, while its local setting remains defined by low-rise homes, parks and the watercourse. Alexandria’s Old Town and the Potomac shoreline add nearby historical context.
