For the past 15 years, ARLnow has occasionally featured news from nearby Falls Church that may be of interest to Arlington readers.
Now we will do this officially and more frequently.
Starting this week, ARLnow will begin covering business and public safety news in the Little City on a more regular basis. There will be two to three stories per week at first, but that may change depending on the news cycle. This will add to, not replace, our existing Arlington coverage.
The expansion aims to serve both Arlington readers and Falls Church residents. With an increasingly vibrant food and beverage scene and long-standing local institutions such as the State Theatre, Falls Church is a popular restaurant and nightlife destination in the region, while Arlington shares public safety resources with Falls Church, including a 911 call center, courthouse and fire department.
Events in Falls Church will also be of interest to our Fairfax County neighbors, so you can expect to see links to much of this coverage in FFXnow’s Morning Notes.
Tomorrow we start with a crash course on the Falls Church restaurant scene.
