Braddock Road Metro, located between Old Town Alexandria and Del Ray, is a transit-oriented and historic Alexandria neighborhood with brick-lined blocks and a rail-and-trail edge. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Braddock Road Metro entrance at N West Street and Madison Street, where commuters, coffee counters, and corner storefronts set a steady weekday rhythm. Architectural cues run from compact rowhouses to converted industrial buildings, with pocket greenspaces stitched between. The Mount Vernon Trail frames the Potomac-side geography with long, linear views and bike traffic. Community pillars include Port City Brewing Company, The Birchmere, and the Torpedo Factory Art Center.
