Carlyn Place

Carlyn Place is a 98-unit highrise in the Langston Boulevard area, built in 1961 at 4371 Lee Highway. It’s one of the few highrises along this stretch of North Arlington, which gives it a different profile from the garden and townhome communities that are more typical of the corridor.

The building includes an elevator, secure access, fitness center, and a party room. That’s a solid amenity package for a building from this era — many 1960s highrises in Arlington have been updated over the years to add features like fitness centers that weren’t part of the original design.

There’s no Metro within walking distance, but Langston Boulevard provides bus access and a straightforward drive to the Rosslyn-Ballston corridor or DC. Carlyn Place gives you highrise living — elevator access, secured entry, shared amenities — in a neighborhood that still feels like a neighborhood. For buyers who want the convenience of a highrise without the intensity of Rosslyn or Ballston, it’s a strong option.
