There are some exciting changes underway this week, from new businesses to new infrastructure improvements.

While Astro Beer Hall (4001 Campbell Avenue) is outside of Alexandria in the Shirlington neighborhood, the new donut shop and beer hall struck a nerve with Alexandrians.

Astro Beer Hall features baked goods, Compass Coffee, and arcade games — a winning combination.

Meanwhile, work is starting on an overhaul to a major intersection on King Street, creating better pedestrian crossings, extending the King Street bike infrastructure and more.
