Starting in 1926, Congress debated and reported on the need for a new airport, but failed to act. In fall of 1938, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt announced that he was tired of waiting and designated Gravelly Point, just across the Potomac River in Virginia, for the cause.</p> <p>The name Gravelly Point is actually even more apt a name than one might guess. Most of FDR’s proposed airfield was underwater back in 1938 and it was only by bringing in millions of cubic yards of sand and gravel that they were able to build a dyke and constitute the airfield for DCA.</p> <p><strong>Washington National Airport</strong> opened in 1941 to great success and the federal government handed it over to the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority in 1987. In 1998, President Bill Clinton renamed <strong>Ronald Reagan National Airport</strong>, but today it goes by its more familiar moniker.</p> <p>DCA is conveniently accessible by a WMATA yellow line metro station or a short cab ride from <a href="https://www.parkwhiz.com/p/washington-dc-parking/">downtown Washington DC</a> For drivers, it couldn’t get any simpler than booking <strong>Reagan Airport parking</strong> ahead of time on ParkWhiz.
