Huntington: Ave. - SB - Fenwick Dr

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.

Among the regions of the United States, Virginia stands out for its sweep from the Blue Ridge Mountains to the Chesapeake Bay. Its varied terrain includes the Shenandoah Valley, the Piedmont of the central counties, and a long Atlantic-facing coast. Richmond, on the James River, is Virginia’s capital and a major centre of American Civil War history; farther east, Jamestown was the site of England’s first permanent settlement in North America, founded in 1607. Shenandoah National Park and its Skyline Drive trace the crest of the Blue Ridge. Move on to other webcams in the region to compare landscapes and settings around Virginia.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
