The following constitutes an application for preliminary consideration of eligibility for the nomination potential of a historic district to the Virginia Landmarks Register and the National Register of Historic Places.

Applicants will be notified of the staff’s and the State Review Board's recommendations. Contact the Virginia Department of Historic Resources Archivist to determine if previous survey material for this proposed district is on file, and if the district has been previously evaluated by DHR. Obtaining previously recorded information could save a significant amount of time in preparing this Preliminary Information Form (PIF).

General Description of District: (Please describe building patterns, types, features, and the general architectural quality of the proposed district. Include prominent materials and noteworthy building details within the district and a general setting and/or streetscape description.) Summary Paragraph The Uptown/Parker-Gray Historic District is a large, level area comprising most of the northwestern quadrant of the Old Town Alexandria street grid as it was laid out in 1797. Although the street pattern was shown on maps by 1798, most of the land remained vacant until the 1860s, and nearly all the built resources currently in the district date from after 1870. Approximately five and a half blocks (east-west) by seven and a half blocks (north-south), it contains 1,370 primary resources (buildings with addresses) and 173 secondary resources. Of the total number of resources, 1170 are contributing. There are 373 non-contributing resources, 3 of which are structures and 370 of which are buildings. Most of the resources are small rowhouses and town houses, but there are also many commercial buildings. The oldest houses are in the southernmost blocks and along the district’s southeastern edge. Nineteenth century architectural styles are found in restrained and simplified forms. The district’s core area consists of a concentration of frame houses with details from late nineteenth century styles, mainly the Italianate and Queen Anne styles. In the southwestern corner and throughout most of the western half of the district in general, whole blocks are occupied by brick Colonial Revival style rowhouses built by developers in three or four major campaigns in the twentieth century. The commercial buildings are nearly all brick. Buildings built for neighborhood-oriented businesses are found on street corners in the southern half of the district and in a small concentration of contiguous commercial buildings along Queen Street. The Queen Street business corridor was once the city’s primary African American business district. Nearly a fifth of the district’s land area consists of warehouses and other large commercial buildings. The warehouses are concentrated in the northern blocks along two north-south streets (North Henry and North Fayette) that were formerly the routes of railroads. Smaller highway-oriented buildings, such as gas stations, are found along U.S. Rt. 1, which also passes through the district north-south along North Henry Street and North Patrick Street. More than 200 units of public housing, built between the early 1940s and 1959 as Colonial Revival style rowhouses, are found in a seven-block area at the northeastern section of the nominated area (the district also contains a large non- contributing public housing development built in 1988). The eastern and southern boundaries of the district follow the existing line of the Alexandria Historic District [NR 1966, amended 1984, NHL 1969] and the George Washington Parkway [NR 1980].

  • Alexandria Lodge No. 39 Alexandria, Virginia 1783-1788
    ALEXANDRIA LODGE NO. 39 ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA 1783-1788 "THE first movement towards the organization of a Masonic Lodge in Alexandria, Virginia was in the year 1782, when Robert Adam, Michael Ryan, William Hunter, Sr., John Allison, Peter Dow, and Dr. Elisha Cullen Dick, presented a petition to the Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania, praying for a dispensation or warrant to open a Lodge at Alexandria, under the sanction of that Grand Lodge, and recommending the appointment of Robert Adam, Esq., to the office of Worshipful Master, Col. Michael Ryan, to that of Senior Warden, and William Hunter, to that of Junior Warden. This petition was presented to the Grand Lodge at its Quarterly Communication, held on the 2d day. of September, 1782, and it appearing to the Grand Lodge that "Brother Adam, the proposed Master thereof, had been found to possess his knowledge of Masonry in a clandestine manner,” the said petition was ordered to lie over until the next regular Communication of the Grand Lodge. Adam lived in Annapolis, Maryland when he came to America from Scotland in 1753 at the age of 22. It is thought that he joined a Masonic Lodge of “Moderns” under the St. John’s Grand Lodge while living in Annapolis. Dr. Elisha C. Dick has received his degrees in Masonry in Lodge No. 2 in Philadelphia and apparently took steps to have Adam made a member of that Lodge to satisfy the Grand Lodge. The Grand Lodge convened in extra Communication on the 3rd day of February, 1783, when, "it appearing that since the last Communication of this Grand Lodge that the said Brother Adam has passed through the several steps of Ancient Masonry in Lodge No.
