Explore Robinson Landing homes for sale in Alexandria, Virginia. Located directly on the Potomac River in Old Town, Robinson Landing combines luxury condominiums and elevator townhomes with waterfront views, resident services, private parking, and immediate access to Alexandria’s shops, restaurants, parks, and historic streets.
Robinson Landing occupies the former Robinson Terminal South site along the Old Town waterfront. The community extends around Strand Street, Pioneer Mill Way, and South Union Street near the foot of Duke and Wolfe streets.
The development includes three condominium buildings, a collection of luxury townhomes, landscaped public spaces, a waterfront promenade, a pier, and ground-level commercial uses. Its architecture incorporates brick, large windows, and warehouse-inspired details designed to complement Old Town’s historic waterfront.
Unlike many Alexandria community pages, Robinson Landing is located within the independent City of Alexandria—not Fairfax County—and is served by City agencies and Alexandria City Public Schools.
The 70 condominium residences provide single-level living within elevator buildings. Floor plans range from relatively compact luxury residences to expansive homes with multiple bedrooms, dens, terraces, and direct Potomac River views.
Depending on the residence, features may include:
Individual finishes and views vary by building, floor, and unit orientation. Buyers should confirm parking assignments, storage, outdoor space, and included fixtures for the specific residence.
The 26 townhomes offer approximately 2,300 to more than 3,000 square feet across several levels. Original plans generally provided three to five bedrooms, private elevators, garages, large windows, and rooftop terraces.
Some townhomes offer direct or partial Potomac River views, while others face landscaped streets and public spaces. Rooftop terraces and flexible upper levels provide space for outdoor entertaining, offices, guest rooms, or additional living areas.
Robinson Landing’s resident amenities are concentrated within the condominium portion of the development and are generally available to community residents according to governing documents and access policies.
Amenities may include:
Ada’s on the River and BARCA Pier & Wine Bar provide waterfront dining within the development. Additional restaurants, cafés, boutiques, and services are located throughout Old Town.
Robinson Landing includes multiple property and association structures. Condominium owners are governed by their condominium documents, while townhome owners may have separate homeowners-association obligations and shared community expenses.
Before purchasing, buyers should review the resale certificate, budgets, reserve studies, insurance policies, rules, parking documents, pet policies, leasing restrictions, maintenance responsibilities, and pending assessments. Owners should verify exactly which services and amenities are covered by each assessment.
Robinson Landing is close to the Mount Vernon Trail, Windmill Hill Park, Point Lumley Park, Jones Point Park, King Street, and the Old Town waterfront. Residents can walk to restaurants, specialty shops, galleries, historic attractions, and seasonal community events.
The waterfront promenade connects Robinson Landing with other public spaces along the Potomac River. The neighborhood also provides access to boating, bicycling, walking, and water-taxi services available elsewhere along Alexandria’s waterfront.
King Street, Washington Street, South Patrick Street, and the George Washington Memorial Parkway connect Robinson Landing with Arlington, Reagan National Airport, National Landing, and Washington, D.C.

Robinson Landing is served by Alexandria City Public Schools. School assignments depend on the residence’s exact address and may change, so buyers should verify current elementary, middle, and high school boundaries directly with the school division.
Archaeological work performed before and during construction uncovered the remains of three 18th-century wooden ships and other artifacts associated with Alexandria’s early waterfront. The ships are believed to have been used as part of the historic process of extending the shoreline into the Potomac River.
This discovery connects Robinson Landing’s modern residences with the maritime and commercial history that helped shape Alexandria.
