Twin Bridges Motor Hotel : ウィキペディア英語版 | Twin Bridges Motor Hotel The Twin Bridges Motor Hotel, later known as the Twin Bridges Marriott was the first lodging facility operated by what would become Marriott International.〔(Fifty Years in the Hotel Business ) Bill Marriott's Personal Blog at Marriott.com〕 It opened on about January 18, 1957,〔 shortly before the second inauguration of President Dwight D. Eisenhower, and was demolished in 1990.〔(Site Plan for Former Twin Bridges Site ) County Board Agenda Item, October 15, 2005, Arlington County Government Website〕 ==Prominent location== The motel was located in Arlington, Virginia, at the Virginia approaches to the 14th Street Bridge, almost directly across the Potomac River from the Jefferson Memorial in the District of Columbia. From this position it had views of the U.S. Capitol and Washington Monument. Its address was 333 Jefferson Davis Highway Arlington, Virginia. The motel was highly visible and under the aerial approaches to Reagan National Airport. The motel permanently closed for business in December 1988. After its demolition in 1990, the Arlington County government rejected a 1991 proposal for office redevelopment, then in 1994 approved an office-and-hotel plan that was never built. In 2005 the County Board refused to grant permission for two seven-story office buildings on the site (and an adjacent parcel at 355 Old Jefferson Davis Memorial Highway). Instead, the county organized an exchange of parcels that shifted the private development closer to Crystal City and secured the Twin Bridges property for public uses more in accord with its visual prominence and sensitive location.〔 The site is being developed as a public recreation area as part of Arlington County's Long Bridge Park.〔(Long Bridge Park, Concepts & Plans ) Arlington County Site, www.co.arlington.va.us〕
