Alexandria’s Garden District Neighborhood Foundation has been working hard to present the 6th Annual Garden District Holiday Tour of Homes to be held on Saturday, December 14, 2019, from 3:00-7:00 p.m.

Four historic homes will be open for tour in the historic Garden District, each with individual history and architectural character. Tour participants begin their tour at the St James Episcopal Church, located at Murray Street and Bolton Avenue, where they can pick up their tickets and tour the beautiful historic

sanctuary. All houses are within walking distance of each other, or you may drive to each stop. Available parking lots will be identified for use as well as on-street parking.

Tickets are $25 and are available for purchase online at www.GardenDistrictNeighborhood.org or in person at Southern Chic Boutique and Main Dish & More in Alexandria.

Featured homes include the Colonel Polk House on Albert Street, an architecturally eclectic early 20th century home full of fascinating details and history; the Ayres House on Marye Street, a 1932 two-story Colonial Revival; the Davidson-Bauer Estate on Jackson Street, a pre-1931 two-story Craftsman Style home; and the Lansing Home on Albert Street, a 1928 model of brick construction.
