Happy early July 4th! I hope everybody has something fun planned for the upcoming long weekend and gets to catch some fireworks.
This week, I’m highlighting five Arlington condo buildings that offer some of the best views of DC fireworks, either from the privacy of your own unit/balcony or a shared rooftop.
2000 Clarendon (link to inventory since 2024)
Built in 2021, 2000 Clarendon is one of Arlington’s newest condo buildings and offers residents a large rooftop terrace, a rooftop social room, and gym. Most of the units here are one or two bedrooms, with some offering an additional den, and range in price from about $550,000 to $2M.

Pierce (link to inventory since 2024)
Built in 2021, Pierce boasts the highest price per square foot of any building in Arlington, earning its premium with a spectacular rooftop terrace and pool, a penthouse-level owner’s club, two-story gym, and private elevator access to select residences. The units are some of the largest available condos in Northern VA, spanning 1,300-2,400 square feet, ranging in price from about $1.1M-$4M.
Pierce rooftop includes DC views, pool, grills, and fireplace
Waterview (link to inventory since 2024)
A condo building that feels like a luxury hotel and offers direct access to and use of the Le Meridien hotel amenities. The rooftop may be compact, but it packs a strong punch with grills and dining space, perched over the Potomac River, to go with some of the most incredible views from anywhere in the DC area. Units range from small one-bedrooms for $500,000 to a recently sold 4,600 square foot masterpiece for $6M, but most range from 700-1,500 square feet and $550k-$1.5M.

Odyssey (link to inventory since 2024)
The Odyssey offers luxury living and amenities at the best value in Arlington with an amazing rooftop terrace that includes a pool, grills, and plenty of space to watch fireworks from. The gym is on the penthouse level with great views from the treadmills and the lobby feels like a high-end hotel. All of that for a condo fee well below market average. Most units are standard sized one and two bedrooms range from $450k-$850k, but the building also includes less expensive studios in the $300s and 2,500-3,000 square foot three bedroom units for $2M+.
The Odyssey rooftop includes amazing DC views, a pool, grills, and the fitness center
Prospect House (link to inventory since 2024)
Prospect House offers some of the best private views of DC you’ll find with units across the entire east side of the building offering two-story living room windows and generous outdoor balconies/terraces with views of DC, over the Iwo Jima US Marine Corps Memorial and Netherlands Carillon. You’ll just have to be willing to trade those views for no in-unit laundry. Most east-facing units are one and two bedrooms with 1,000-1,500 square feet, ranging in price from about $500k-$1.1M+.
