Two community workshops remain this week for Alexandria residents to learn more about plans to develop Duke Street and provide feedback to city leaders.
The Duke Street Land Use Plan is hosting workshops from 6:30-8 p.m. tonight (Wednesday) and tomorrow at the Patrick Henry Recreation Center at 4653 Taney Avenue. The first workshop was held last night (Tuesday).
The plan is intended to guide city officials in the development of the Duke Street corridor from the former Landmark Mall to Alexandria Union Station. The document is expected to be ready for City Council consideration and adoption from late 2026 to early 2027, according to the city.
Participants are encouraged to register for the event. The topics for discussion are the same as an open house the city hosted last month.
“Our aim is to keep these workshops around 25 participants in order to ensure that they can be conversational,” the city said in a release. “If we receive more interest than these three dates can accommodate we will explore adding an additional workshop.”
