Join us for the Duke Street Land Use Plan's first open house, which will include interactive stations and the opportunity for community members to engage with Staff about specific opportunities they see on the corridor, weigh in on proposed corridor themes, and learn about the planning process

This open house is a key opportunity to shape the future of Duke Street as an affordable, vibrant heart of Alexandria. There is no virtual option for this meeting.

Food, childcare, and Spanish & Amharic interpretation will be provided.
