Unitarian Church of Arlington

1964, Charles M. Goodman. 4444 Arlington Blvd. (near the southwest corner of Arlington Blvd. and George Mason Dr.)

Goodman's design stresses structural features with its strong piers and dominant flat roof plane. The interior, essentially a great meeting room with high walls and narrow clerestory, shows the influence of Goodman's Chicago background and of Frank Lloyd Wright's Unity Temple.
