The Arlington Heights Historic District is a national historic district located at Arlington County, Virginia. It contains 737 contributing buildings and 1 contributing site in a residential neighborhood in central Arlington. The area was formed from the integration of 25 subdivisions platted between 1909 and 1978. Single-family dwellings include representative examples of the Tudor Revival and Colonial Revival styles.

The district is primarily a single-family residential neighborhood with a number of twin dwellings. It is also home to garden apartments, a synagogue, a parsonage, two elementary schools, a middle school with community center, two landscaped parks, and a diner.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.[1]
