Comments about Alexandria - Landmark

Landmark-Stevenson Ave (Submitted by GM)

Alexandria does not get as much attention as some Arlington neighborhoods, but it offers the same convenience at a much better price. Great public transportation to DC, urban neighborhoods and proximity to malls, supermarkets and entertainment. Landmark-Stevenson Ave area is about 2miles from Metro and is connected using MetroBus and Dashbus. The neighborhood is great with parks, mall, theaters, water-park and big label stores. Definitely a great neighborhood for urban living.
