Arlington Boulevard in the context of Court House, Virginia

Court House, also known as Courthouse, is a neighborhood in northern Arlington County, Virginia that serves as Arlington's seat of government. It is generally bounded by Arlington Boulevard, N Rhodes Street, Courthouse Road, Key Boulevard, and N Danville Street, and is located along an urban corridor that follows the Orange and Silver Metro lines.

The site of Fort Woodbury during the Civil War, Court House began in the late 19th century as a small community that surrounded Arlington County's first courthouse built outside of Alexandria, Virginia. Population growth in Arlington in the first half of the 20th century prompted greater residential and commercial development, which was further spurred by the opening of the Court House Metro station in 1979. Court House, like other neighborhoods in the Rosslyn-Ballston corridor, has since become mixed-use and transit-oriented.
