A transforming community with easy access to urban conveniences
Watergate At Landmark is situated in the evolving Landmark neighborhood of Alexandria, an area known for its mix of high-density living and ongoing development. The community is part of what's colloquially referred to as the "Condo Canyon," characterized by monolithic condo complexes from the 1960s and 1970s. However, recent years have seen the addition of new subdivisions and planned communities, bringing fresh energy to the area.
The neighborhood is on the cusp of significant change with the redevelopment of Landmark Mall. The former shopping center is set to be transformed into a mixed-use community anchored by the new Inova Alexandria Hospital, promising to inject new vitality into the area.
For everyday needs, residents have access to a variety of shopping options. Van Dorn Plaza, a basic outdoor shopping center with a grocery store and fast-food outlets, is about a mile away. For a more extensive shopping experience, Kingstowne Towne Center, featuring a wide array of retail and dining options, is located about 3.5 miles from the property.
Grocery shopping is convenient with several options nearby. Safeway is about a mile away, while specialty stores like LA Mart International Food offer diverse culinary options. For bulk shopping, BJ's Wholesale is also in the vicinity.
The neighborhood provides a good selection of dining options. Local favorites include Taco Bamba Taqueria, known for its creative take on Mexican street food, and King Pollo of Alexandria, offering Peruvian-style rotisserie chicken. For a quick coffee or light meal, Cafe Aurora provides a cozy spot with an East African flair.
Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to several parks. Bren Mar Park, a large wooded area with a playground and trails, is just a quarter-mile walk from the property. Stevenson Park and Armistead Boothe Park, both less than a mile away, offer additional green spaces with athletic fields and picnic areas.
For families with children, the area is served by Samuel W. Tucker Elementary School, Francis C. Hammond Middle School, and Alexandria City High School. While school ratings vary, the high school offers a variety of extracurricular activities and academic programs.
The neighborhood's location provides easy access to major employment centers. It's a short commute to the Pentagon, Amazon HQ2, and downtown Washington D.C., making it an attractive option for professionals working in these areas.
Strategic location with diverse transit options
Watergate At Landmark's location offers residents a variety of transportation options, balancing the convenience of personal vehicles with access to public transit. The property's position inside the Beltway provides quick access to major highways, facilitating easy commutes to key areas in the region.
For those relying on public transportation, the Van Dorn Street Metro station, served by the Blue Line, is about a mile and a half away. While not within immediate walking distance for most, the condominium offers a free shuttle service to the station during rush hours, significantly enhancing the accessibility of the Metro for residents.
Several bus stops are located in close proximity to the property. The Edsall Rd And Yoakum Pkwy stop, less than a quarter-mile walk, is served by the Springfield Clockwise and Counter-Clockwise routes. Another nearby stop at Yoakum Pkwy & Edsall Rd provides access to the Landmark-Holmes Run Parkway line and a route connecting Van Dorn Metro to the Pentagon Metro.
For those traveling further afield, Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport is approximately 8 miles away, or about a 15-minute drive, offering convenient access for both domestic and international travel. Washington Dulles International Airport, while further at 29 miles, is still accessible within about 45 minutes by car.
Commuters who prefer rail travel have the option of the Backlick Road station on the VRE Manassas Line, located about 3.5 miles from the property. This provides another alternative for reaching downtown D.C. and other parts of Northern Virginia.
While the area is primarily oriented towards car and public transit use, there are some options for cyclists. However, the infrastructure for biking is limited, making it a less common mode of transportation in the immediate vicinity.
For residents with cars, the property offers ample parking options. Each unit typically comes with multiple parking passes for unassigned spaces, and there's the possibility of purchasing covered parking for those who prefer added protection for their vehicles.
