Falls Church
The City of Falls Church, which locals sometimes call “The Little City” due to its tiny size (2.2 square miles), is named after a historic house of worship built in 1769. After World War II, Falls Church evolved into a commuter haven with convenient access to Routes 66 and 50. The downtown area features a variety of bars, restaurants and local stores, such as Brown’s Hardware, a local institution that started out as a general store back in the 1880s. Eden Center, a shopping and dining area filled with Vietnamese-American businesses, has become another major attraction. The tree-lined streets of Falls Church feature brick ranch houses, condominium units and wooden Cape Cod homes built around or after World War II.
