Spooky season culminates this weekend in Alexandria with an array of Halloween happenings.
Lee Street Halloween, a popular trick-or-treating event organized by neighbors, is one of the highlights of the weekend. The next few days will also bring St. Elmo’s CatRad Halloween Eve, Lee-Fendall House’s Pumpkin Palooza, Alexandria Fall-O-Ween, a Halloween bar crawl and the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria’s rescheduled Paws in the Park.
The Hotel Heron in Old Town wants to add live DJ entertainment at its rooftop restaurant, according to a plan going before the Planning Commission next week.
The 134-room boutique hotel at 699 Prince Street, near the intersection with S. Washington Street, opened in 2024 and is owned by the Aparium Hotel Group. The hotel’s rooftop restaurant, Good Fortune, opened soon after, and now the hotel owners are asking the city to approve DJ and live music Thursday to Sunday nights.
