Informed by the Colonial Revival Garden Style, the Ramsay House Visitor Center garden is a blend of ordered hardscape and boxwood lined garden beds with an informal plant palette of adaptable low maintenance native species. The garden was designed within the context of historic Alexandria with contemporary and sustainable improvements that address current needs to accommodate visitors' comfort and accessibility. The addition of a stone seat wall surrounding an expanded recycled brick terrace provides seating and shade for visitors waiting for tours. An accessible crushed stone pathway leads to an upper recycled brick terrace with benches and a water fountain. The garden boasts the first outside cell phone charging station in the City of Alexandria!
