There seem to be hundreds of historical markers in Arlington, Virginia, which I guess is not that surprising — this area is full of history and interesting stories. I’m trying to collect all the historical markers I see here.

![Ballston: By 1900 a well-defined village called Central Ballston had developed in the area bounded by the present Wilson Boulevard, Taylor Street, Washington Boulevard, and Pollard Street. More diffuse settlement extended westward to Lubber Run and southward along Glebe Road to Henderson Road. The track of the Washington, Arlington, and Falls Church Electric Railroad ran along what is now Fairfax Drive. The Ballston station was at Ballston Avenue, now Stuart Street. Here Clements Avenue, now Stafford Street, divided to pass on either side of an old Ball Family graveyard.](http://www.ilovearlingtonv.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/IMG_1862-224x300.jpg)
