A legendary stone of american history, nothing in DC can top this!
What a beautiful view, Maryland, Virginia and Washington DC in just want visit. The view its amazing, basketball court, running track and a beautiful background for your pictures!!
There’s a bit of confusion about exactly which of the many stones are the official boundary stone. Since I stood next to all of them down there, I can safely say that I was exactly at the precise most southern point of Washington DC. But I can’t tell you exactly when.
Regardless, it’s a nice little park area down there. It’s a little hard to get to but it’s a neat area with people doing different things- running, skating, fishing, walking dogs, etc.

Nice but of history. This is one the places that shows where the original border between DC and Maryland was at Jones Point before this part of DC was returned to Virginia.
This use to be where Virginia, Maryland, and DC all met. So you are going to find a LOTS of boundary stones. And a lot of historical signs talking about the history of the land here. Good place to walk, bring kids, and enjoy nature. And airplanes flying over.
It's a stone. It can't disappoint because it's a stone. Plus if you walk from Old Town to here, you can tell people you walked from Virginia to DC to Maryland.
While they do not function as the modern day boundry markers they are still a wonderful part of D.C.'s past.
One of the better boundary stones I’ve been to
