Grove at Arlington: We are moving soon so we are archiving this cache. We hope to resurrect some of the same ideas after we relocate farther west.

If you joined the war effort, this was the place to be. No fighting ever took place here.
The location is named for the man who was then General-in-Chief of the Union Army. A detached lunette was constructed here in May 1861 to guard the south flank of the defenses of Washington. A historic marker and a small remnant are the only remaining evidence. When originally built, it had a perimeter of 313 yards and emplacements for 8 guns. Construction of the defense of Alexandria to the west subsequently reduced the importance of this place. It is designated as a Historic District.
