Working in Alexandria’s Historic Districts
Portions of Alexandria fall under the Old and Historic Alexandria (OHA) district, which requires Board of Architectural Review (BAR) approval for exterior changes. Oracle’s design team is experienced with the BAR process and will guide you through what requires review and what doesn’t. Interior renovations in historic properties typically don’t require BAR approval — but we know the rules and will advise you correctly from the start.
