Various legends are associated with the Three Sisters. In one, three Roman Catholic nuns drowned in the river, which spewed them back as the three islands.

The Three Sisters are probably best known as the site of the proposed Three Sisters Bridge, which would have carried Interstate 266 across the river between the District of Columbia and Arlington County, Virginia.
