What is a split-level home?

split-levelA Modern style that architects created to sequester certain living activities--such as sleeping or socializing--split levels offered an multilevel alternative to the ubiquitous style in the 1950s. The nether parts of a typical design were devoted to a garage and TV room; the midlevel, which usually jutted out from the two-story section, offered "quieter" quarters, such as the living and dining rooms; and the area above the garage was designed for bedrooms. Found mostly in the East and Midwest, split-levels, like their Ranch counterparts, were constructed with various building materials.

What is the “Main Street” of Southern Fairfax County?

A 1960 view of Route One
A 1960 view of Route One
Southern Fairfax County is located just south of Old Town Alexandria between the Beltway and the Potomac River. Although Rose Hill and Franconia and Springfield are in southern Fairfax County, when most folks think of South County, they think of New Alexandria, Groveton, Woodlawn, Mount Vernon and Lorton. When you think of that part of the county there is only one road that could really qualify as "Main Street."  Franconia Road and Telegraph Road and even the GW Parkway run long stretches through Southern Fairfax County, but Main Street would have to be Rt. 1.
