Waldorf-based Kody Imports recently filed paperwork with the city to officially change ownership of Rosenthal Landmark Honda (5125 Duke Street), a longtime car dealership in Alexandria’s West End.
Waldorf-based Kody Holdings, which owns a dozen auto dealerships in Maryland, bought the dealership near Cameron Station for an undisclosed sum, according to the change of ownership filing. City property records haven’t yet listed the sale, but the property was last assessed at $7.3 million in value by the city in January. Rosenthal Landmark Honda bought the 120,000-square-foot property for $3.85 million in 2005.
Kody Holdings also bought Alexandria Toyota (3750 Richmond Highway) across from Potomac Yard in 2022.
No renovations are planned for the Duke Street property, auto repair garage or sales office, according to the application. The dealership would continue to sell new and used vehicles and conduct auto repairs, according to city records. The proposed hours for the dealership would be 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturday and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday.
The last day for public comments is Oct. 2.
