Alexandria Summer Restaurant Week begins August 18-27, and will showcase the inventiveness of local chefs from participating restaurants in neighborhoods throughout the city, including Old Town, Del Ray, Carlyle and the West End. 

In September 2016, the Alexandria City Council voted unanimously to begin the process of renaming Jefferson Davis Highway in Alexandria. Submit your suggestions for new names in an online survey.  

After both major bond rating agencies reaffirmed the City’s top bond ratings, the City earned favorably low interest rates on the competitive sale of new general obligation bonds for public facilities, infrastructure and affordable housing. 

The City is leading an effort to enhance neighborhood vitality and quality of life for residents, employees and visitors in the Carlyle area. Take part in a number of events and experiences this summer, including outdoor fitness, pop-up cafes, movies under the stars, and more!
