dbpprop:abstract
  • Alexandria is an independent city in the Commonwealth of Virginia. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 128,283. Located along the Western bank of the Potomac River, Alexandria is approximately 6 miles (9.6 kilometers) south of downtown Washington, D.C. Like the rest of northern Virginia, as well as central Maryland, modern Alexandria has been shaped by its proximity to the nation's capital. It is largely populated by professionals working in the federal civil service, the U.S. military, or for one of the many private companies which contract to provide services to the federal government. The latter are known locally as beltway bandits, after the Capital Beltway, an interstate highway that circles Washington, D.C. One of Alexandria's largest employers is the U.S. Department of Defense. Others include the Institute for Defense Analyses and the Center for Naval Analyses. In 2005, the United States Patent and Trademark Office moved 7,100 employees from 18 separate buildings in nearby Crystal City into a new headquarters complex in the city. Alexandria is home to numerous trade associations, charities, and non-profit organizations including the national headquarters of groups such as Catholic Charities, United Way, and the Salvation Army. In 2005, Alexandria became one of the first cities of its size to offer free wireless Internet access to some of its residents and visitors. The historic center of Alexandria is known as Old Town. With its concentration of high-end boutiques, fine restaurants, antique shops and theaters, it is a major draw for tourists and those seeking nightlife. Like Old Town, many Alexandria neighborhoods are compact, walkable, high-income suburbs of Washington D.C. It is the seventh largest and highest income independent city in Virginia. A 2005 assessed-value study of homes and condominiums found that over 40 percent were in the highest bracket, worth $556,000 or more.
  • Alexandria ist eine Stadt im US-Bundesstaat Virginia, sie liegt auf der Westseite des Potomac River, knapp 10 Kilometer von Washington D.C. entfernt.
  • Alexandria es una ciudad independiente de la Mancomunidad de Virginia (Commonwealth of Virginia). Según el censo del año 2000, la ciudad tiene una población de 128.284 habitantes. Se localiza en la ribera oeste del Río Potomac y se encuentra a 9,6 kilómetros al sur de la ciudad de Washington D.C. Como el resto del norte de Virginia y del sur de Maryland, la actual Alexandria ha tomado forma gracias a su cercanía de la capital de los Estados Unidos. Es ampliamente habitado por profesionales que trabajan en el servicio federal civil, el ejército estadounidense, o alguna de las numerosas compañías privadas que contratan para brindar servicios al gobierno federal. A estos últimos se les conoce como bandidos beltway, gracias a Capital Beltway, una autopista interestatal que rodea a Washington D.C. Uno de los mayores empleadores en Alexandria es el Departamento de Defensa. Existen otros como el Instituto para el Análisis de la Defensa, y el Centro para Análisis Naval. En 2005, la Oficina de Patentes y Marcas Registradas trasladó a 7.100 empleados de 18 edificios ubicados en Cristal City hacia un nuevo complejo de oficinas centrales en Alexandria. Alexandria es hogar de numerosas asociaciones, casas de beneficencia y organizaciones no lucrativas incluyendo las oficinas centrales de grupos como el Ejército de Salvación (Salvation Army). En 2005, Alexandria se convirtió en una de las primeras ciudades de su tamaño en ofrecer gratuitamente Internet inalámbrico a algunos de sus residentes y visitantes. El centro histórico de Alexandria, conocido como Old Town (pueblo viejo) es una gran atracción para los turistas y para aquellos en busca de vida nocturna. Como Old Town, muchos distritos de Alexandria son suburbios de alto ingreso pertenecientes a Washington D.C. Un estudio valuador de bienes raíces, observó que más del 40 por ciento de estas, se encontraban en la clase más elevada, con valores de 556.000 dólares o más.
  • Alexandria on kaupunki Virginiassa Yhdysvalloissa. Kuten loputkin Pohjois-Virginiasta, modernia Alexandriaa on muovannut sen läheisyys maan pääkaupunkiin. Sen asukkaista huomattava osa on ammattilaisia, jotka työskentelevät liittovaltion hallinnon tehtävissä sekä sotilaallisissa toimissa.
  • Alexandria est une ville de l'état de Virginie aux États-Unis. On y recense 128 284 habitants. Elle est située sur la rive ouest du fleuve Potomac au sud de Washington, DC. Comme le reste de la Virginie du nord, et le Maryland du sud, la ville a été largement modelée par sa proximité avec la capitale fédérale. Elle est principalement peuplée de personnes employées par l'État, l'armée ou une des nombreuses entreprises privées travaillant contractuellement avec le gouvernement fédéral. Ces dernières sont localement appelées "Beltways Bandits" (qui pourrait se traduire en français par les "bandits périphériques") en référence au "Capital Beltway" qui est le nom du boulevard périphérique de Washington, DC. L'un des plus grands employeurs d'Alexandria est le Département de la Défense américain. Alexandria accueille aussi de nombreuses associations caritatives et bénévoles, tel que le siège Américain de l'Armée du salut. Le centre historique d'Alexandria est appelé "Old Town" (la vieille ville). C'est le lieu de prédilection des touristes et de ceux qui apprécient la vie nocturne. Comme le "Old Town", une grande partie des quartiers d'Alexandria forme une banlieue aisée. "Market Square" (la place du marché) dans le "Old Town" fut le plus grand marché aux esclaves des États-Unis en sont temps. Aujourd'hui on y trouve une grande fontaine et on y tient un marché (de produit fermier) hebdomadaire. Le George Washington Masonic National Memorial se trouve aussi à Alexandria.

  • Alexandria is een stad in de Amerikaanse staat Virginia gelegen aan de Potomac River vlakbij Washington, DC. De stad had volgens de census van 2000 128.283 inwoners. Het is hiermee de 166e stad in de Verenigde Staten (2000). De oppervlakte bedraagt 39,4 km², waarmee het de 228e stad is. Alexandria werd in 1749 gesticht en vernoemd naar John Alexander, een schotse immigrant die in 1669 het land kocht waar de latere stad zou verrijzen. In 1789 werd de stad een onderdeel van het District of Columbia. Tijdens de Amerikaanse Onafhankelijkheidsoorlog was Alexandria een belangrijk handelscentrum en haven. In 1847 werd Alexandria weer terruggegeven aan de staat Virginia. Tijdens de Amerikaanse Burgeroorlog die van 1861 tot 1865 woedde werd de stad door Unie-soldaten bezet. Ook nu weer was de stad van belang voor de aanvoer van goederen en deed het dienst als transport centrum. Ook werden diverse forten gebouwd die van belang waren bij de verdediging van de hoofdstad Washington. Tegenwoordig is Alexandria naast zakencentrum vooral een toeristenstad. In het oude historische Old Town Alexandria bevinden zich vele musea, monumenten en historische gebouwen waaronder het huis van de zuidelijke generaal Robert E. Lee.
  • Alexandria er en by i delstaten Virginia i USA. Den hadde ifølge den amerikanske folketelling i 2000 en befolkning på 128.284. Byen ligger på Potomacelvens høyre (vestlige) bredd, ti km sør for det sentrale Washington, DC. Nærheten til den amerikanse hovedstaden preger byen og området. Mange av innbyggerne er tilknyttet regjeringsapparatet og forsvaret. Den første bebyggelsen fant sted i 1695, med mindre det hadde vært noen indianerlandsbyer akkurat der tidligere en gang. Alexandria har en stor og vel bevart gamleby. Det meste av den lå – likesom hele dagens Arlington Conty, innenfor grensene til District of Columbia, et distrikt som ble utskilt fra statene Virginia og Maryland for å gi rom for de nybakte selvstendige Amerikas Forente Stater. I 1840-årene fant man ut at D.C. ikke trengte å være riktig så stort, og alt sør for elven Potomac ble tilbakeført til Virginia. Byen Alexandria ble atskilt fra Alexandria County i 1870. Den gjenværende delen av Alexandria County forandret navn til Arlington County i 1920, og det fikk slutt på mange års forvirring.
