Fact text
- Franconia Road was once literally a rolling road, colonists rolled tobacco barrels along it to ship them to the port at Alexandria.
- The community's name traces back to a single farm called 'Frankhonia Farm,' which gave its quirky name to a railroad station, a post office, and eventually an entire suburb.
- A gravel quarry on Potter's Hill once provided material for the construction of the original Woodrow Wilson Bridge, pretty humble origins for a major D.C. landmark.
