Alexandria, Virginia

Alexandria is far more than a suburb of Washington, D.C. It has perhaps the richest history of any of the immediate areas. It was a slave trading center, an important focus during the American Civil War, and a home to both rebels and heroes. Today, it is an historic community as well as an upscale residential area.

Within an easy commute to the Capital area, its inhabitants enjoy a small town lifestyle while working in the D.C. area.  Your new Alexandria apartment will combine the best of both worlds.

Today's Old Town

Old Town is the center of Alexandria and is a charming mix of boutiques, utilitarian shops, restaurants and residences. You will also find numerous historically designated buildings like the boyhood home of Robert E. Lee, the original location of George Washington's town home and office, and Carlyle House which was not only home to General George Braddock but the site of many important Federalist meetings.

The weekly (Saturday mornings) Farmer's Market is a great place to see neighbors and meet new people.  It's been held in the same spot for 240  years and is one of the mainstays of life in Alexandria.  And if you have a dog, don't miss Doggy Happy Hour each afternoon at the Hotel Monaco.  Locals bring their pooches and a drink and both humans and canines socialize. None of these attractions will be far from your Alexandria apartment and you will feel like a local in no time at all.

Waterfront Dining

Eating out in Alexandria gives the resident many choices. The waterfront area is lovely any time of the year but especially in summer for sitting outside near the water. You can dine and watch the small sailboats.

Gadsby's Tavern is where the first five Presidents all dined.  It still has the feel it did in the 1700s and the atmosphere is great. On the edge of Alexandria, you'll find Paradiso which is more upscale yet is kid friendly. Try Tempo for a more elegant yet unpretentious night out.

Pub Music

Since Virginia law requires that drink be served with food, there aren't traditional bars serving just liquor or beer but there's still some good nightlife found in Alexandria. Pat Troy's and Murphy's are both great Irish pubs that have music on most nights while the Tiffany Tavern has blue grass music for easy listening. The Birchmere is a classic music hall that hosts all different sorts of musicians.An Alexandria apartment will find you quickly finding all these places and more!
