Designed to connect, both physically and symbolically, the North and the South, this bridge, as designed in the Neoclassical style, complements the other monumental buildings in Washington such as the White House, the Lincoln Memorial, and the Jefferson Memorial. Memorial Bridge was designed by William Mitchell Kendall while in the employ of McKim, Mead and White, a prominent architectural firm based in New York City. Although designed and built almost thirty years after the McMillan Commission had been disbanded, this structure reflects the original intention of the Commission which was to build a memorial bridge on this site which would join the North and South.

  • Fy 2021 Adopted Capital Improvement Plan
    FY 2021 ADOPTED CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN Arlington will be a diverse and inclusive world-class urban community with secure, attractive residential and commercial neighborhoods where people unite to form a caring, learning, participating, sustainable community in which each person is important. SUMMARY OF FY 2021 CAPITAL PLAN For FY 2021, the County proposed and adopted a one-year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). As the County Manager stated in June 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has created far too much uncertainty in terms of an unstable financial outlook, an increased need for food, housing and health needs, and supporting the business community and workforce. The program presented in the adopted CIP considered the uncertain fiscal horizon of the County and focuses on essential investments with a one-year CIP. As part of the adopted FY 2021 budget, the County Board maintained the existing real estate tax rate at $1.026 per $100 dollars of assessed value (including stormwater tax). The adopted program centers on projects already in progress, projects that are critical to improving County infrastructure and assets, projects that meet legal and regulatory requirements, technology investments and commitments to invest in the stormwater infrastructure system. Highlights of the adopted CIP include: • Fire Station Renovations – The fire stations will be renovated to accommodate additional staff. Renovations include additional storage, living space, locker room facilities and upgrading decontamination areas. • Body Worn Cameras – The new technology will implement Body Worn Cameras for the Police Department and Sheriff’s Office in addition to initial upgrades to four courtrooms to support the program. • Trail Bridge and Modernization Program – This ongoing program will address the replacement of the pedestrian bridges in Glencarlyn and Lubber Run parks, which were destroyed in the July 2019 storm.
