new alexandria: New Alexandria gives residents charm, beauty and easy access to N. Va - 10/07/10 06:12 AM
New Alexandria, an unincorporated community and a census-designated place (CDP), is located in Fairfax County’s Belle Haven. Although it has an Alexandria postal address, New Alexandria is not located in the City of Alexandria, but is instead just south of the City. Located between Fort Hunt Road and the George Washington Parkway not far from Rt. 1, New Alexandria is surprisingly close to Arlington, Va., and Washington, D.C. Despite this closeness, New Alexandria offers a quiet, park-like setting with little cut-through traffic, complete with cottages, townhomes and luxury homes. New Alexandria’s cottages were crafted uniquely and residents adore the homes for their charm and beauty. The community’s townhomes enjoy quality construction and provide interesting yet efficient floor plans.

new alexandria: Pie Social with the Alexandria Fun with Friends group - 10/20/09 06:52 AM
The Pie Social was a big hit with members of the Alexandria Fun with Friends group. Members pitched in to bring pies and a supporting cast of whipped cream, milk, coffee and teas. The group relaxed with a few games and chatted the evening away. I tried to taste them all but there were just too many and they were just too good. I definitely look forward to the next time around with this one. The event was held at the River Towers Club Room, just outside Old Town near the Potomac in New Alexandria. About twenty locals,

new alexandria: Martha Washington Library temporarily closes its doors ... - 12/07/08 07:29 AM
We'll miss her ... The Martha Washington Library is definitely one of the features and benefits of living in and around the 22307 area code. Martha Washington serves houses and townhouses of Bucknell Manor, the adorable garden-style condos of Belle View, the scenic condos at River Towers, the manors and homes of Belle Haven and homes and families of Fort Hunt with a broad selection of books and media. The staff is always helpful and pleasant. I and the Alexandria Gaming Group have made great use of the community room on numerous occaisions. So December 20th will be a sad day

new alexandria: George Washington Parkway -- Views over the Potomac - 07/21/08 07:27 AM
The George Washington Memorial Parkway, often called the GW Parkway by locals, meanders through parks on both sides of the road and is usually within close proximity to and sight of the Potomac River. The US Park Service maintains this and all parkways. Parkways are designed to be scenic meandering roads with light traffic. Despite finding a path through the most urban parts of Northern Virginia, the GW Parkway largely accomplishes these goals. Top posted speed on the Parkway is 50 mph, and cruising speeds rarely exceed this limit. On the other hand, even during the worst of rush hour, speeds

Belle View condominiums were built in the late forties just outside Old Town Alexandria VA, in a section of Fairfax County which is often called "New Alexandria". In the early 80's these apartments were sold as condominiums. Today there are 980 units on 56 acres comprising the Belle View Condominium Association.
