Long Bridge Park

Long Bridge Park Friends of Long Bridge Park A broad, half-mile long, raised walkway, known as the Esplanade, connects the park and its recreational facilities.
(280)

Views from this area includes Roaches Run Waterfowl Preserve as well as the historic skyline of our Nation’s Capital and Washington Monument. West of the Esplanade, a large rain garden infiltrates runoff from the athletic fields to support a planted garden of native shrubs and perennials. Check out the trails to walk, run, bike or skate with spectacular views of Washington, D.C., Crystal City, the

Pentagon, and Roaches Run Wildfowl Sanctuary. A large public event area is located in the center of the park to host festivals and gatherings that build community and strengthen connections. The 46-acre Long Bridge Park area is bounded on the north by the former "Twin Bridges Marriott" site and on the south by South 10th Street. The area is bounded on the west by Old Jeff Davis Highway and on the east by the Roaches Run Water Fowl Sanctuary. The County has owns approximately 28 of the 46 acres in the North Tract area. The history identifying the future park site goes back to the early 1990's.

The railroad bridge and the Pedestrian bridge will go between these two bridges. The new rail bridge will be RIGHT NEXT to the current bridge (2 feet or so away).

The project team has developed a preliminary concept design for the Long Bridge Drive corridor between Boundary Channel Drive and S. Clark Street / 12th Street S. The concept design was informed by your input, alongside Board-adopted plans and policies, operational and safety data, and staff observations.

The proposed multi-use trail would connect the Crystal City and Pentagon City neighborhoods with the Mount Vernon Trail and the future Long Bridge walking and biking connection to Washington DC. The concept design is below, along with two focus areas where multiple concepts were developed for your input.

Join us at a public project open house on September 26, 2024 from 5:00pm-7:30pm at Long Bridge Aquatics & Fitness Center. At this meeting, you can learn more about the project, check out the concept design, and speak with project staff about how we got here.
