George Washington Memorial Parkway Magnet

The George Washington Memorial Parkway, known to local motorists simply as the G. W. Parkway, and further known as an All-American Road, is a parkway maintained by the U.S. National Park Service. It is located mostly in Northern Virginia, although a short section near the Arlington Memorial Bridge passes over Columbia Island, which is within the city limits of Washington, D.C. It is in two sections, joined by Washington Street (State Route 400) in Alexandria, Virginia. A third section, the Clara Barton Parkway, runs on the opposite side of the Potomac River in the District of Columbia and Montgomery County, Maryland. A fourth section was proposed for Fort Washington, Maryland, but was never built. This magnet is symbolic of this famous roadway.
