Nauck, Virginia
Nauck is a neighborhood in Arlington, Virginia. It is bordered by Shirlington to the south, Douglas Park to the west, I-395 to the east, and Columbia Heights to the north.
Demographics
The neighborhood has historically been predominantly African American, but also is mixed among other races.
Schools
Nauck is home to Drew Elementary School. The school is one of the few Montessori schools in Arlington County.
Development
There has recently been quite a lot of residential redevelopment in the neighborhood including the Townes of Shirlington, Shirlington Crest, and the Macedonia apartments.[1] Many older homes have been torn down and replaced with larger, newer homes due to the large increase in land prices the last decade. The land along Shirlington Road has been the target of major redevelopment in recent years. In 2011, Walmart showed interest in developing a store there, which resulted in the county changing zoning rules that effectively rejected Walmart's plan.[2]
Landmarks
In 2013 the Green Valley Pharmacy was designated a historical district designation by the Arlington County Board.[3]
