Alexandria West Small Area Plan Map
Residents are being asked for their opinions on the future of Alexandria West, including all the neighborhoods west of I-395.
The opinion-gathering is part of a comprehensive update to the Alexandria West Small Area Plan, including the Beauregard Small Area Plan.
City officials want to "update the long-term vision for the 1992 Alexandria West Small Area Plan and integrate the 2012 Beauregard Small Area Plan. Creating an updated community vision for the future allows us to proactively plan for change and prepare for challenges and opportunities in the years to come," according to the area plan website (at alexandriava.gov/AlexandriaWest).
Alexandria staff already know a lot about the area — housing is mostly apartments, office space is mostly Class B or C, and affordable housing is needed. The neighborhoods have a higher percentage of tree canopy compared to the rest of the city.
