    Documentary Study and Archaeological Evaluation for 1323 Wilkes Street and 421 S. Payne Street Alexandria, Virginia prepared for Capital Investment Advisors Alexandria, Virginia prepared by JMA, A CCRG Company Alexandria, Virginia April 2015 DOCUMENTARY STUDY AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL EVALUATION FOR 1323 WILKES STREET AND 421 S. PAYNE STREET ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA Prepared for Capital Investment Advisors 800 Slaters Lane Alexandria, VA 22314 By Sarah Traum And Charles E. Goode, RPA JMA, A CCRG COMPANY 5250 Cherokee Avenue, Suite 300 Alexandria, Virginia 22312 (703) 354-9737 April 2015 ABSTRACT ABSTRACT The two parcels at 1323 Wilkes Street and 421 South Payne Street, Alexandria, Virginia have been proposed for redevelopment. The parcels consist of a mid-twentieth century warehouse and two-story office building with no vegetated open space area. Alexandria Archaeology reviewed the proposed project and determined that because the existing warehouse complex was built with a slab foundation, there is potential for archaeological deposits under the extant foundations. They concluded that the parcels may have the potential to contain significant archaeological deposits associated with the nearby Civil War U.S. Military Railroad Yard (no longer extant). JMA (a CCRG Company) prepared a documentary study of the two contiguous parcels in September 2014. The study included background research on the prehistory and history of the project area and its vicinity. Based on its findings, Alexandria Archaeology determined that there was potential for archaeological deposits associated with the stockade that protected the Civil War U.S. Military Railroad Yard. JMA then performed an archaeological evaluation within the warehouse to determine whether remains of the stockade are present below the concrete slab foundation.
