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.
