Will Falls Church’s Oldest Building Become a Cafe?
The owners of The Liberty Tavern, North Side Social Club and Lyon Hall in Arlington are looking to convert the oldest building in Falls Church into a café, Falls Church News Press reports. Mark Fedorchak and his partners bought the old and worn Blue and Gray Building at 205 Park Ave, and they’re moving through the Falls Church Historic Commission and Historic Architectural Advisory Board. They’ve had a positive response so far, because they want to preserve the integrity of the original building. However, word on the street is the critters that have come to call this place home are furious and threatening to organize a protest. The Blue and Gray Building, sometimes referred to as the “Old Cloverdale House,” was built in 1797 by Willson Clover. [FCNP]
