A coworking space, food market and restaurant are all coming to The Atrium (277 S. Washington Street) in Old Town.
Companies W.C. & A.N. Miller Development Company and Avison Young announced in a press release that new restaurants Mae’s Market & Café and Virginia’s Darling Restaurant would be opening in the building over the next few months. Both restaurants are new ventures from Stomping Ground in Del Ray, which also expanded to Tysons in 2018 and bagel shop Bagel Uprising next door in Del Ray in 2019.
The Atrium will also be a home to Alexandria-based coworking space ALX Community. The new coworking location is scheduled to open sometime later this year.
“The timing of the location’s opening — as well as The Atrium Building itself — should be ideal for the ALX Community,” said Scott Shaw, co-founder of the coworking firm, in the press release. “Fall 2021 puts us on the other side of the pandemic, which is a plus. And we think The Atrium Building’s size, amenities and location are a winning combination for companies that have been waiting to make a move.”
The new move comes after a facelift for the building was approved last year.
