This is the staff byline for ALXnow, used by editors and other full-time staff. Launched in October 2019, ALXnow is the place for the latest news, views and things to do around Alexandria, Virginia.
Much like our sister sites, ALXnow is an advertising-funded local news outlet.
Thanks to our advertisers, we can bring you the latest Alexandria news without a paywall, pop-ups, or other things that limit access or hinder the user experience.
ALXnow Launches Today — This is the first post on the first day of ALXnow. Our goal is to bring Alexandria timely, relevant and useful local news coverage that uncovers unreported stories and drives community conversations. We hope you like it.
About the Morning Notes — Morning Notes posts like this one will be published on most weekday mornings and will highlight notable social media posts, press releases and the reporting of other news outlets. Most posts will be shorter than this one — we’re catching up! Each Morning Notes post will also feature a photo from around town, often from our staff photographer, Jay Westcott. You can submit photos for possible publication too: email us at [email protected] or tag us on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.
Coming soon: Online-only news for Alexandria, from the team behind ARLnow. Everything local, from restaurants to breaking news to city government.
It’s official: we’re launching on Oct. 1, 2019!
