Holy Coincidence, Batman! There's a Wayne Manor in Arlington
Holy Coincidence, Batman! There’s a Wayne Manor in Arlington

Wayne Manor in Penrose (via Google Maps)
Don’t tell the Caped Crusader, but someone swiped the name of his family’s estate for use as the name of a small garden apartment building in Arlington.
“Wayne Manor” may conjure up images of Batman, but it’s also the name of the apartments at 500 S. Wayne Street in Penrose, according to county property records.
The apartment building was built in 1963, 24 years after the Dark Knight first appeared in comic books. The “Wayne Manor” name doesn’t seem to appear on apartment rental websites, but it was prominently featured on a commercial property sale listing from 2011.
