  • Alexandria Architect Leaves His Mark
    Office of Historic Alexandria City of Alexandria, Virginia Out of the Attic Alexandria Architect leaves his mark Alexandria Times, April 25, 2013 Image: The Charles Goodman House, 514 N. Quaker Lane. Office of Historic Alexandria. recent addition to the Virginia Landmarks Register is the International-style Charles M. Goodman House, which sits along North A Quaker Lane in Alexandria. Goodman was an influential American architect, educated at the Illinois Institute of Technology, who came to the Washington area in 1934 as a design professional with the Public Buildings Administration. He developed the original terminal building at Reagan National Airport and later worked for the U.S. Department of the Treasury and Air Transport Command. After World War II he founded Charles M. Goodman Associates, which went on to build homes, office parks, churches and schools in the region. But it is his influential, mid-20th century housing designs in the Modernist aesthetic that has garnered the most acclaim. He participated in the creation of many residential developments around Washington, such as Hammond Wood and Rock Creek Woods in Montgomery County as well as the famous Hollin Hills development in Fairfax County, where he designed 14 distinct styles for the 450 homes built. He eschewed the Colonial reproduction housing designs then popular in the Maryland and Virginia suburbs, espousing instead a contemporary unity between exterior and interior spaces and integration into the environmental setting for each residence he built. Many of his residential projects are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 1946, Goodman purchased a Victorian home along North Quaker Lane, built about 1870, and began to modify and enlarge the house in the modern idiom, using an open floor plan, natural lighting and nontraditional building materials.

    SUMMER 2017 HOLLIN HILLS BULLETIN PARADING TO THE PICNIC hey came in all sizes, all ages, on foot and on decorated bikes, trikes, scooters, and Tskateboards, with the youngest paraders in wagons and strollers following the local fire engine and ambulances. Cheered on by their neighbors along the route, Hollin Hills families turned out in force to march along Paul Spring Road from Rebecca to Rippon, and on into Voigt Park for our community’s biggest celebration of the year, the Fourth of July Picnic. And the picnic was great! It met and exceeded expectations as, hot, humid and happy, we greeted old friends and met new ones. We lined up for a bountiful potluck of salads, desserts, and side dishes; sampled the beer, soda, hotdogs, and ice cream provided by the Civic Association; and tapped our feet to the infectious music of the Mount Vernon Band. The ponies were ridden, the eggs were tossed, and the three-legged race was run, all as they have been for many years and will likely continue for many years to come. This annual community event relies heavily on traditions, and those traditions were well represented. After all, why mess with perfection? We shouldn’t forget, however, that that perfection didn’t come automatically; it came from a lot of coordinated effort led by Social Chair Sasmita Dastidar along with many other members of the community. They set things up, cooked and served food and drinks, signed up CAHH members, supervised the games, and cleaned up the park so that hardly a sign of the festivities was left on (continued on page 2) Thank you to Michelle Mattox, Warren Mattox, and J.G.
