Union Station in Alexandria backs to the King Street Metro
Situated at the foot of Shooter’s Hill at the point where King Street leaves Old Town Alexandria, The King Street Metro provides 30 metered parking spaces (for short time parking) and bike racks as well as car sharing.
At the top of Shooter’s Hill is the George Washington Masonic Memorial where one can look down over King Street to the Potomac. It is only in King Street where one can find an array of shops and restaurants, many of which you would normally find in an elite mall. There are also unique shop stops, boutiques and nightclubs along with fun activities/events.
There are more than 4000 historical buildings of exquisite architecture that were commercialized to house small businesses and homes for a modernized community in Old Town Alexandria. Historic structures are lines with brick sidewalks as well as elegant modern structures.
Because of Old Town’s prestigious real estate, prices are quite costly, but it is a great place to reside in for its historic properties, condominiums, garden style condos, townhouses and houses.
King Street Trolley
Parking would be sort of a problem especially in areas where tourists flock along King Street so it would be advisable to take the Metro to King Street, then catch a ride on the King Street Trolley, for free, if one would wish to do some sight seeing.
