Luxury Old Town Waterfront Living

Robinson Landing occupies one of Old Town’s most desirable stretches of waterfront property. There’s good reason for all the hoops the developers had to jump through in order to build here—the site is on the old Point Lumley, a landing for deep water ships that predates Alexandria’s official founding. When archeologists examined the land, they discovered the remains of three 18th century ships as well as the foundation for the old Hooe Warehouse, also from the 1700s.

The City of Alexandria required many assurances and accommodations from EYA before construction commenced. Those lucky to live at one of Alexandria’s birthplaces are steps from the public promenade that stretches along the Potomac, as well as the new docks and boat slips. Upscale restaurants will be part of Robinson’s landing, along with boutique retailers and an outdoor café on the pier. Waterfront Park is at the northern end of the development, and the Old Dominion Yacht Club is just a block away.

Robinson Landing is at the foot of Duke Street at Union Street and two blocks from King Street. That means that Alexandria’s best restaurants at close at hand. It starts with waterfront dining at places like Chadwick’s, Charthouse, Vola’s Dockside Grill and Hi-Tide Lounge, Virtue Feed & Grain, and of course, the new chef-driven fare from Robinson Landings own restaurants. And, once you start venturing west, you’ll discover scores of other eateries, including the many famous hotspots along King Street.

It’s not just about the food and drink, of course. Old Town Alexandria is known for its shops, galleries, museums and entertainment. Wandering along the cobblestone streets reveals a multitude of delights. Whether you want to go sailing, kayaking, exhibit gazing at the Torpedo Factory Art Center or simply relaxing at the end of the day with a drink by the river, this is a great place to be.

Also, when it comes to mundane matters such as grocery shopping, there’s a Whole Foods on Duke Street and a Trader Joe’s on St. Asaph. Bonus points go to the original Old Town Farmers Market on King Street just a few blocks away—open since 1753!
