Redevelopment plans for Point Lumley Park on the Alexandria waterfront are heading to the Board of Architectural Review.
The BAR will review the first concept for a reimagined Point Lumley Park at its meeting on Wednesday, May 7. The city plans to close Point Lumley Park and Waterfront Park from fall 2026 to fall 2028 to rebuild segments of the seawall.
A new temporary art installation titled “Break Water” by D.C.-based mixed media artist Nekisha Durrett debuts on Saturday, March 21 at Alexandria’s Waterfront Park, bringing forward powerful historical narratives through contemporary visual language.
The sculpture, which will remain on display through November, draws inspiration from Alexandria’s waterfront, where natural forces and human activity intersect, often with profound consequences for the community.
