City of Alexandria Service Relocations Continue Ahead of City Hall Renovation

The City of Alexandria has begun relocating City services and employee offices to prepare for major renovations to City Hall and Market Square. Relocations will continue through the end of 2025, with renovations beginning in January 2026.

Fall 2025 Relocation Schedule

• September 25:
  • The Department of Finance's Real Estate Division will temporarily move from City Hall to 100 N. Pitt St., Second Floor.
• September 26: The following Code Administration divisions still located at City Hall will permanently relocate to 4850 Mark Center Dr., Second Floor:
  • Plan Review
  • New Construction
  • Property Maintenance
  • Administrative Services

More than 400 City employees will be moving from their existing offices to temporary or permanent spaces throughout Alexandria. Additional moves will be announced in the upcoming months.

How does this move affect and benefit Alexandrians?

City Hall, an Alexandria landmark, is well over 100 years old. Market Square has been a civic gathering place since the City's founding in 1749. Both facilities need significant updates to repair aging building components, improve technology and accessibility, enhance security, and bolster community engagement.

Starting this summer, several departments currently located in City Hall will move to temporary spaces. Other departments will permanently move. During the transition, some services will be offered virtually or temporarily paused.
