Soaring apartment buildings, sleek office towers, hustle-and-bustle – this is Ballston. Historic rowhouses, tall trees, lush parks – this is also Ballston! This terrific neighborhood is the ideal blend of sleek, modern downtown and charming, tree-filled suburb. It’s very walkable and mass transit is readily available with the Ballston-MU metro station located on Fairfax Drive next to the FRESHFARM Ballston Market.
The neighborhood takes its name from the Ball family. This family first settled in the Arlington area way back in the 1700s. A Revolutionary War vet, Ensign John Ball, was one of the first settlers. Hockey fans will appreciate having the Kettler Capitals Iceplex in the neighborhood – this is where the Washington Capitals practice. In the heart of Ballston, Quincy Park provides residents with ball fields, picnic areas, and volleyball, basketball, and tennis courts.

Gates of Ballston
The Gates of Ballston is a complex of several long 2 story buildings with 3-4 entrance . The addresse is shown at each entrance of the 4 units/ apartments.My is a cheerfully sunny 600 sq. ft corner unit on the 2nd floor ;1 bedroom with closet, dining / living room combo with a front large window that makes dining feel like an indoor /outdoor cafe experience.The kitchen has plenty of cabinet space , a dishwasher,and a microwave along with your basic kitchen appliances.The bathroom is very inviting white paint and backsplash of white tile with sporadic intervals of gray tile ; and tile the same as wall- beautiful.There is a walk in closet and the convience of a washer and dryer. This area is the heart of Arlington, Virginia ; there the Ballston Mall with movie theater Harries Teeter supermarket,CVS, lots of restaurants - all in walking distance.The metro is 10-15 minutes walking distance and their buses no more than a block away. By car you are minutes away from mayor highways ( 395, 66 495) and the dc and maryland area. Who can ask for anything more.For all this you pay monthly rent and electricity..LOVING IT.

Hope to be a winner.
I will first start by saying , I am grateful for having a decent place to live , good neighbors , the apartment complex is relatively safe , they are decent at fixing things that need repaired , the maintenance of the apartment complex is decent , the area is convenient , to my needs , but all that being said , my serious issue is with the amount of money I pay for rent, for a small studio apartment , that the walls is so thin , I can hear my neighbor , when urinate , I can hear there conversations as though we are in the same room , every kind of noise imaginable you can it is there for your ears . with the last said statement I rate it 2 stars .
