Proyectos financiados por VLCF
Las granjas y los bosques, los campos de batalla y otros sitios históricos, las áreas naturales, los parques y los ríos de Virginia son fundamentales para su economía, cultura y calidad de vida. En 1999, la asamblea y el gobernador establecieron la Fundación de Conservación de la Tierra de Virginia (VLCF) para financiar la protección de estos recursos. El mapa interactivo a continuación muestra los proyectos subvencionados por VLCF financiados desde 2000.

Descripción: |
The City of Alexandria received a grant award of $900,000 to assist in the fee-simple acquisition of a 0.30-acre lot on Prince Street in Old Town Alexandria, containing an historically significant 18th century timber frame and brick dwelling distinguished by its relatively unaltered state of preservation and high degree of integrity. The property is a contributing resource to the Alexandria Historic District, which is listed on the Virginia Landmarks Register and National Register of Historic Places and designated a National Historic Landmark by the Secretary of the Interior in 1966. The Murray-Dick Fawcett House is also adjacent to the Washington-Rochambeau Route and was one of the few buildings in existence in the area during the time of the American Revolution. The Office of Historic Alexandria currently manages eight museums and historic sites and will incorporate the house into its system as a public museum and educational center. Protection of the property now preserves a nationally significant architectural and cultural resource while promoting heritage tourism and providing public access to an urban greenspace in the downtown core.
