Fairlington Then and Now

The above pictures show what Fairlington looks like today and the bottom images show what Fairlington looked like when it was first built. The main difference is that there is much more landscaping and the trees have grown quite a bit taller. Also if you look at the buildings you’ll notice that the houses did not used to have shutters on the windows. Fairlington has become a part of a more urban area and with the surrounding development came the installation of the parking lots. Although there are these slight changes, not much in the neighborhood physically has changed because it is on the Historic Register, which makes sure it stays the same way it was when it was first built.
