Crystal City - isn’t that where the bonus marchers were camped before the army led by MacArthur, Eisenhower, and Patton burned them out?

I thought they were camped out on the National Mall. Crystal City is/was a business development in Arlington. New high rise buildings and hotels, clustered near Reagan Airport and just across the Potomac from DC. Don't know if i's still a part of Arlington...I moved out of the area in 1981.
