Views from Montebello


Montebello was built on a promontory overlooking the Potomac Historical Marker at Fort Lyon River. This knob, called Mount Eagle, has such a commanding view that it was used as a fort during the US Civil War.

The ridge upon which Montebello sits is part of an important geological feature that is tied to the "Fall Line". This ridge starts at Great Falls VA and runs along the Potomac all the way to Mt. Vernon. Much of the area's most valuable real estate is sits on this ridge. From the hieghts of Rosslyn to the Iwo Jima Memorial, to Robert E. Lee's Arlington House, to Arlington's Ridge Road to Belle Haven, this Ridge overlooks the Potomac.

The knob at Montebello is often called Mt. Eagle and is shared by Mount Eagle Park and the Huntington Metro.

As a result of Montebello's perch, many units have sweeping views of the surrounding area. Depending upon the unit's position in the complex, you'll see the Potomac River, the Woodrow Wilson Bridge, Old Town Alexandria, the USPTO, the Monuments and Capitol or Alexandria's West End and the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Huntington Club, Midtown Alexandria Station, Montebello, Near Huntington Metro

condo comparison at the Huntington Metro: AMENITIES


This is part of series of articles comparing the benefits of condos in close proximity to the Huntington Metro

Amenities are an important part of any condo buying decision. Amenities such as a pool and fitness room are pretty standard in most condos, but some condos offer a bit more. It is no different in the four complexes surrounding the Huntington Metro.

No matter how you compare them, the best amenities on the block are at Montebello. Montebello's community center is home to most of these amenities and it is well-maintained and pleasant. Here's a list of some of the features of Montebello.

The runner-up in this category is at the Midtowns at Alexandria. The Midtowns have an absolutely gorgeous lobby and lounge (a cyber cafe) on the first floor. The pool at the Midtowns is on a roof deck located half-way up the building. From this party deck, one has great vistas toward the Blue Ridge and the city of Alexandria. There are barbecue stations and more to enjoy here on the deck. The party room is first class and state of the art. It's the type of place you'd be proud to bring guests or enjoy as a resident.

The Huntington Club and the Hunting Creek Club are far behind the first two on this list. These two condos have more pedestrian offerings that are standard fare. Both have a pool, party room and fitness room. (Huntington Club recently renovated their pool.) Hunting Creek Club has a nice tennis court.
