The Pentagon Area Apartment Housing

The iconic Pentagon is the US Department of Defense headquarters. Construction began on September 11, 1941 and was completed in 1943. The five-sided building has five floors above ground and two basement levels. The five-acre central plaza in the center of the building is in the shape of a pentagon. The building covers about 6,500,000 square feet over 41 acres and employs about 28,000 military and civilian employees.

Situated just south of the Arlington Cemetery in Arlington, the Pentagon is across the Potomac River from Washington, DC. With easy access to the Pentagon Metro, a subway station conveniently located next to the Pentagon, the entire DC area is ideal for apartments near the Pentagon.
