Planning a Remodeling Project in Alexandria?

Planning a kitchen, a bathroom, a basement, new windows, siding or a deck in Alexandria? Whether the outside of your house needs a Certificate of Appropriateness before anything starts depends on which block it sits on. We find that out first.

What Remodeling Work in Alexandria Actually Involves

The BAR Decides The Outside

In the Old and Historic Alexandria District and the Parker-Gray District, the Board of Architectural Review approves a Certificate of Appropriateness for new construction and exterior alterations visible from a public way. Windows, doors, siding and decks all fall under it. City preservation staff answer questions at 703-746-3833, and that call belongs at the start of a project, not halfway through.

Del Ray Is Not Old Town

Only two districts in the city are locally regulated through the BAR. Del Ray, Rosemont and Beverley Hills are not among them, which is why the same rear addition moves on a completely different timeline six blocks west. The BAR also looks at buildings that are a hundred years old, so age matters as well as address.

Alexandria Remodeling Questions

Does my Alexandria house need BAR approval?

⌄
Only if it sits in the Old and Historic Alexandria District or the Parker-Gray District, and only for exterior changes visible from a public way. Windows, doors, siding and decks all count. City preservation staff answer questions at 703-746-3833.

Is Del Ray under the same review as Old Town?

⌄
No. Del Ray, Rosemont and Beverley Hills are outside the two BAR districts, so the same rear addition moves on a different timeline there. Age can still matter, because the BAR also looks at buildings that are a hundred years old.
