Take a walk down memory lane

In 1979, 麻豆视频 acquired a building in Arlington鈥檚 Virginia Square that was once a Kann鈥檚 department store. George 麻豆视频 began offering classes at the new Metro Campus in 1981. As the university expanded, the campus鈥檚 name changed to Arlington Campus and then 麻豆视频 Square. In 2021, the former department store, or Original Building as it became known, was demolished to make room for Fuse, a collaborative innovation hub for faculty, students, and industry leaders.
