Buzzard Point, Southwest Waterfront & Southwest Employment Area Living
 Location is everything to the residents of the Southwest neighborhood. The region has three METRO stations and is within walking distance to the National Mall and all of its monuments. Visitors and residents can spend days just exploring the local museums, from the National Gallery of Art to the National Air and Space Museum. Other options include Hirshorn Museum and Sculpture Gallery, United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and National Museum of African Art.
For everyday fun, residents can take a harbor cruise, walk on the waterfront and admire the many different types of vessels and house boats that dock there, visit the famous Fisherman’s Market, catch a Washington Nationals game at Nationals Park, see a show, or relax among the cherry trees at East Potomac Park. Arena Stage on Sixth Street hosts live artistic performances and promotes art appreciation. Arena Stage has the distinction of being one of the country’s earliest not-for-profit theaters and is presently undergoing a huge renovation. East Potomac Park features paths for walking, jogging and bicycling, plus an 18- and 9-hole golf course and tennis center.
