Pillars to Pavers: Preservation in Alexandria
Since the 1960s, the City of Alexandria has seen older buildings and spaces being restored, preserved and reused in different ways. In honor of National Historic Preservation Month, explore the streets of Alexandria with stops to highlight how buildings have been preserved and adapted for future generations to enjoy. At two stops, Carlyle House and Lee-Fendall House, you will be able to enter spaces that are usually closed to the public. Tours begin at the Lee- Fendall House at 10 a.m. every Saturday in May. This tour includes walking over many city blocks, stairs and access to confined spaces. Face masks and social distancing will be enforced and tours are limited to eight people. Please dress appropriately for the terrain and weather. Tickets are $25 per person. For more information, please call 703-548-1789 or email contact@leefendallhouse.org.
