Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Columbia Pike–National Landing Line" in English language version.
National Landing will be the newly defined interconnected and walkable neighborhood that encompasses Crystal City, the eastern portion of Pentagon City and the northern portion of Potomac Yard.
National Landing was not an invention of Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, but was instead dreamed up by local economic development officials, who created it as part of their attempt to lure the e-commerce giant.
To create a cohesive brand that Amazon would buy, Landrum and Winn renamed this space "National Landing" since the Nation's Capital and Reagan National Airport are so close.
