John Longden Houses, 105-107 South Royal Street, Alexandria, Independent City, Virginia
Summary
Significance: These two adjoining buildings were associated with a prominent Alexandrian during the heyday of the city as a port. Later alterations to the facades conceal what were likely buildings of the traditional Federal genre. They are two of three buildings associated with John Longden on this block and separated from the third by one building. (See HABS report on the John Longden House at 111 S. Royal Street, VA-689).
