The Lee Gardens North Historic District, also known as Woodbury Park Apartments, is a national historic district located at Arlington County, Virginia. It contains thirty attached masonry structures forming seven contributing buildings in a residential neighborhood in north Arlington. The garden apartment complex was designed by architect Mihran Mesrobian according to the original standards promoted by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA). The Lee Gardens North complex was completed in 1949–1950. The brick buildings are in the Colonial Revival style, with some fenestration elements influenced by the Art Deco and Moderne style. [3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004. [1]
