Theodore Roosevelt Island in Arlington, VA, serves as a living memorial to America's 26th president, Theodore Roosevelt. Transformed from neglected farmland in the 1930s, the island features miles of trails through wooded uplands and swampy bottomlands, honoring Roosevelt's legacy as an outdoorsman and conservationist.
Landscape architects designed the island to mimic the natural forest that once covered it, offering visitors a serene escape into nature. With proposed memorials and a Junior Ranger Program, Theodore Roosevelt Island provides a unique opportunity to explore history and conservation efforts in a picturesque setting.
