While it might be nice to live without the hustle and bustle of everyday it working and living at home in isolation does have its drawbacks. For local business in particular there has been a significant downturn in activity, but Alexandria is still filled with determined owners looking to satisfy the community’s needs.
City Hub has gathered together a list of the best options for Alexandria locals to remain safe and healthy during social distancing.
