alexandria: SPRINGFIELD VA REAL ESTATE TOUR OF HOMES AND SUBDIVISIONS
- 03/01/08 09:58 AM
16 Springfield subdivisions were selected to demonstrate the wide variety of homes that are available to meet the needs of a broad section of the population. One of the main attractions of Springfield is that it projects a genuine sense of a well established, mature community that is not apparent in more recently developed areas. Since Springfield is not an incorporated town or city, its' services are provided by the Fairfax County form of government.
When you click on the subdivision links you will see photos, prices and other pertinent information regarding the particular subdivision.

alexandria: GEORGE WASHINGTON AIR JUNCTION - A GIGANTIC FLOP
- 02/23/08 08:25 AM
Henry Woodhouse purchased 1,500 acres of dairyland in Hybla Valley during the 1920's.
It was his objective to build the largest transatlantic commercial airport in the National Capital Area. There were three runways with the largest being 7.200 feet long as well as moorings for Zeppelins.
Howver, the airport never received the necessary approvals - there is no record of any takeoffs or landings during its' operation.
The land was leased to dairy farmers until 1950 when the Virginia National Guard established an anti-aircraft battery in defense of Washington, D.C. on the site … (8 comments)

alexandria: BEACON FIELD AIRPORT IS NOW BEACON MALL SHOPPING CENTER
- 02/19/08 09:55 AM
In all the years we lived in Mount Vernon and shopped at Beacon Mall I wondered where the name originated.
The original 74 acre tract was purchased by an Alexandria businessman in the 18th century. It changed hands over time and became the site of City View, an impressive 19th century estate.
The site (elevation 249 feet) was an ideal location for an airfield which was developed in the 1920's. Originally, it was used by private pilots and the US Mail Service.
During Woeld War II it saw service as a training school for naval aviation cadets as well as the Womens Air Force … (2 comments)

There is only one gas station in the Fort Hunt section of Mount Vernon. It is located in the Hollin Hall Shopping Center .
Yes, they pump your gas, wash the windows and check the oil and fluid levels. Even though they are the only gas station in the Fort Hunt area their price per gallon of gasoline is competitive with others in the Mount Vernon area.
Why? The shopping center and service station are at the main entrance to Hollin Hall Village, a community of one level ramblers that is very popular with senior citizens.

alexandria: Back To The Future at the Hollin Hall Shopping Center in Mount Vernon VA
- 02/11/08 09:30 AM
The Hollin Hall Shopping Center located on Fort Hunt Road has survived handsomely since it was built in conjunction with Hollin Hall Village in the late 1940's and early 1950's.
The facade of the Safeway at the north end of the complex is typical of the architectural design of that period.
Although the Fort Hunt area of Mount Vernon is not an incorporated town, the Hollin Hall Shopping Center is about as close to a "downtown" as you can get. It is two blocks long and has all of the neighborhood necessities - most of them have been there for years.

alexandria: AN HISTORIC ALEXANDRIA CHURCH ROOF
- 12/21/07 07:23 AM
The Christmas ornament at the right is a slate roof section from one of the most historic churches in Northern Virginia.
Old Presbyterian Meeting House on South Fairfax Street in the City of Alexandria was chartered as a Presbyteian congregation in 1772 . The sanctuary you see pictured was built in 1775.
The front steps were the highest review point in Alexandria. It was on these steps that General George Washington made his farewell review of his troops as they paraded past.
One of the buildings on the church grounds that was built in 1787 is Flounder House - it was the … (0 comments)

Alexandria, Virginia is a great place to visit, live and work. With more than 250 years of history, this hometown of George Washington still retains much of the character and charm from its' earlier days as a major port city.
