Charging by neighborhood

Rosslyn, Courthouse, Clarendon and Ballston

Dense development makes garage entrances, one-way streets, and walking distance important.

Crystal City and Pentagon City

These areas work well for charging during shopping, hotel stays, dining, or office visits.

I-66, US-50 and DC approaches

For through travel, compare total detour time. A station only a mile away can still add significant time if it requires crossing the corridor or navigating a dense commercial area.

Parking, charging time and fees

  1. For Rosslyn–Ballston trips, search the specific neighborhood and check whether the charger is in a garage or surface lot before navigating there.
  2. If you are crossing into Washington, avoid charging on the wrong side of your route just because the straight-line distance is smaller.
  3. For County-owned charging, review Arlington County’s current charging page for price, dwell-fee, parking and temporary-closure information.
  4. When a charging session overlaps a meal, appointment, gym visit, or shopping stop, destination charging can turn charging time into time you were already going to spend.

Charging and parking costs
Compare the charging price with any separate parking or garage fee. Open the parking icon when shown for available fee and access details. Free charging does not necessarily mean free parking.
Restrooms and access
A restroom icon opens nearby OpenStreetMap information when available. Distance is approximate and straight-line; check access and hours on arrival. No icon means information may be missing, not that there is no restroom.
Recent driver reports
Check the report time. “Available” means at least one working port was reported free, not a live count of open ports. After charging, you can report availability or price to help other drivers and earn points when eligible.
Driver ratings and reviews
Open a charging station Details view to read driver ratings and written reviews when available. Signed-in drivers can leave a rating and optional comment; reviews describe past experiences, not live availability.

You can save a trip after signing in, or share a public station link from its Details view without an account. Keep an alternative stop: reports and directory information can be out of date.
