Arlington Hall, Government complex in Arlington County, United States.
Arlington Hall consists of multiple buildings spread across a campus with the main structure featuring Georgian Colonial architecture and red brick walls.
In 1942, the United States Army commandeered the former women's college campus to establish a critical cryptographic operations center during World War II.
The Signal Intelligence Service at Arlington Hall employed numerous female cryptanalysts who decoded Japanese diplomatic messages throughout World War II.
The Foreign Service Institute now occupies the premises at 4000 Arlington Boulevard, providing training facilities for United States diplomatic personnel.
Construction workers discovered an unexploded Civil War Parrott rifle shell during maintenance work at Arlington Hall in January 2008.
