This year's 4th of July holiday was accompanied by a absolutely beautiful weather and clear skies. The Mall was packed as usual, but there was plenty of other places to view the festivities without the massive crowds.
Arlington Condo blog has listed 1o good highrises to view the DC fireworks:
1. Prospect House
2. Waterview
3. Turnberry Tower
4. The Odyssey
5. Woodbury Hts.
6. The Representative
7. Clarendon1021
8. Liberty Center
9. The Bella Vista
10. The Eclipse
I've heard that the view this year from The Odyssey was outstanding. Also, I imagine 1021's roof deck would also provide a great panoramic view from Arlington.
