The Virginia Room Needs Help!

The Virginia Rooms holds dozens of photographs with unidentified people and places…

This photo is just one.

Taken probably in the late 1970s or 1980s, it is of several homes along an unknown street in Arlington. There are clues that the houses could be located in the Courtlands or Colonial Terrace neighborhoods, but we are not sure. If the homes in this photograph are familiar to you, please contact the Virginia Room.

What About You?

Do you recognize anything in this photograph? What do you remember about the Courtlands and Colonial Terrace neighborhoods? Let us know what you remember!
