City planning -- Virginia -- Alexandria

This collection contains applications for permits for new construction and repairs or alterations of properties in Alexandria, Virginia, dating from the 1890s through the 1940s. These documents include description of the property, description of new construction or proposed modifications, location, owner, builder, material, cost, and other specifications. Some permits also include hand-drawn maps or architectural sketches. The collection is organized chronologically.

The collection includes organizational papers, minutes, correspondence, and other materials documenting NOTICe’s formation, relationships to other organizations and various projects and concerns. The Minutes series is the biggest. The set of minutes is fairly complete; however there are occasional gaps where we have only the agenda for a meeting.
