Skline Square is relatively close to I-395.
Interstate 395 doesn't have Metro train service but it carries a massive load of traffic none-the-less. In addition to its 8 to 10 lanes of traffic, 395 has an extra 3 lanes of HOV that switch direction depending on the hour of the day. 395 leaves DC between the Pentagon and Crystal City (both in Arlington) and on the way out to I-95 and the Beltway at Springfield, I 395 passes Shirlington, Landmark, East Falls Church and other neighborhoods. Traffic on 395 is nearly always heavy but only slows during rush hour.
Skyline Square is just up the street form Bailey's Crossroads and the Seven Corners Shopping Center.
With a mixture of residents and businesses, Bailey's Crossroads is a thriving, prosperous community. Bailey's Crossroads is located in the Mason District of Fairfax County, Virginia.
Bailey's Crossroads is located on what is now called Leesburg Pike. In pre-Columbian America Leesburg Pike was a buffalo trail and an Indian trail. The trail lead from the Potomac River to the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains. In the colonial era, the land here was part of the original Fairfax land grant. That land was parceled out over time, and as a result George Washington owned land which now is occupied by the Skyline complex of condominiums. In 1809, Bailey's truly became a crossroads with the construction of the Washington Graveled Turnpike which is now know as Columbia Pike.
The name Bailey derives itself from New York entrepreneur Hachaliah Bailey, of Barnum & Bailey fame, who purchased land at the crossroads in the mid 19th century. He used the land as a place to house and display America's first elephant.
During the Civil War, Bailey's Crossroads changed hands several times and as a result nearby homes were used to garrison Confederate and Federal troops. Union President Abraham Lincoln ordered a large military review here after the Union defeat at the Battle of Bull Run.
In 1913, the Alexandria Water Company built a reservoir named Lake Barcroft near here. (Barcroft Park is nearby in Arlington County.) By the second world war, the area had transformed into a bedroom community for Washington DC. By the 1950's the Seven Corners Shopping Center was considered a model of the American future by many. As a result, in 1953 US President Dwight D. Eisenhower brought Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev to the Seven Corners at Bailey's Crossroads. A few years later, the shopping center was enclosed and became Northern Virginia's first shopping mall.
The Skyline complex appeared in the early 1970s and is now home to Skyline Square, Skyline Plaza, Skyline House and more condominiums.

The Spectrum at Falls Church
The roof of the Spectrum is a "green roof" that was designed to improve air quality and filter storm water. The plants that grow on the roof are intended to provide thermal insulation, which in turn help to reduce energy consumption throughout the building and thus increase insulation for the community residents. Because the roof helps residents conserve energy, it is also notable that the roof, therefore, saves residents money.
The Spectrum community features include a large clubroom with a pool table, lounge, and fireplace, as well as a business center, conference room, catering kitchen, and a movie screening or theater room. Other amenities include a fitness center, a garden area, and a rooftop observation deck overlooking the "green roof". In today's current market, saving money and the environment are two important but often wholly separate matters. The benefit of the Spectrum Condominiums at Falls Church is that the building provides residents the opportunity for both, setting the standard for a harmonious relationship between urban society and the natural world. Check the Spectrum for a map of the location and a list of what's for sale at the Spectrum.

Idylwood Towers Condos in Falls Church, Virginia
The Idylwood Towers Condominiums include
two high-rise buildings with a sum total of 484 residential condo units and include
1 bedroom, 2 bedroom and 3 bedroom floor plans. The Idylwood Towers are located
at 2300 and 2311 Pimmit Drive in Falls
Church, Virginia, and are accessible by Metro via the Orange
Line to the East
Falls Church Metro Station.
Although the Towers were completed in 1974, the exterior of the building has undergone at least one facial renovation since that time. In fact, what is actually particularly appealing about the Idylwood Towers is the buildings’ age insofar as solidity and structure. The units and building itself are concrete and brick structures that provide excellent sound insulation and fire resistance, both of which honestly pay homage to today's all too common commiserate story "they just don't make 'em like they used to". Here, the facade and age of the buildings are endearing and the community is certainly whole. No flashy stuff, just a great place to call home.

Walk Score rates this as a highly walkable neighborhood. I dispute this slightly because the Skyline neighborhood is heavily trafficked and serviced by 6 lane roads in some cases. Everything is close to Skyline, true. But not everything is walkable from Skyline. On the other hand, Skyline Plaza is has very active and clean bus service with quick shuttles to nearby metro stations. Skyline Plaza published the SKYlines newsletter every month updating residents on up coming events in the community.
