Stretching one and a quarter miles along the Potomac River in Price George's County Maryland, you will find majestic National Harbor. This newly developed community brings together work, living and entertainment on a grand scale never seen before.  It's hard to believe this 300-acre waterfront destination is only 15 minutes outside downtown Washington, D.C.

If you arrive by water, you'll be greeted by an astonishing sculpture The Awakening which sets the tone of the entire place. Originally located in Potomac Park across the Potomac River & north a few miles, this statue was dismantled then moved to it's new home. It now resides on the sandy beachfront at the National Harbor resort near the stage and plaza creating a spectacular view from the Potomac River.  Adding to the urban elegance found throughout National Harbor you'll find four beautiful fountains including two pond fountains. You'll also find an abundance of green space sprinkled throughout the community further enhancing the restored natural habitats.awakening

The theme throughout National Harbor is American Spirit and while here, you will feel the spirit of life here, it is exciting, vibrant and so alive. In fact, once you visit National Harbor, it's hard not to imagine living here. Walking along the waterfront it's hard not to be swept away with the notion you could be here every day, living and being part of this vibrant waterfront community. Before you know it, you're picturing yourself waking up to the view of the historical Potomac River and taking daily strolls, jogging or skating down the waterfront path. You may even envision working right here within National Harbor so you can already ‘be home' when you get out of work. 

And then there is the excitement of the best shopping and dining imaginable just outside your door. One of the most exciting new additions to the area that you'll want to visit is the celebrity-infused Ketchup restaurant. And while you're there you may want to try one of their signature menu items like Maryland Crab Cakes or the Philly Sandwich. Residents, trendsetters and VIPs alike are sure to visit this modern American restaurant whose owners include celebrities Ashton Kutcher, Wilmer Valderrama and Tara Reid.

If you were to imagine the best place to live, work and play, then visit National Harbor, you'd see for yourself why living there couldn't get any better. If you are looking into buying a condo anywhere in the DC area, you owe it to yourself to check out the National Harbor area.

Sounds terrific Rachael.  I could definitely get used to lavish living.  Not sure I can afford it, but definitely would like it.

Lavish living aside, Gabe, this is a great place to visit.  Make sure to put it on your "Can't miss this" the next time you are in DC.  Thanks for your comment.
