Forty years ago, a determined group of Alexandrians established the Bicentennial Tree Project. After an exhaustive multi-year, city-wide search, a group of 17 trees were identified as "Living Witnesses of the American Revolution." Each tree was given a plaque attesting to its distinction and designation. This particular Willow oak was designated as the official Alexandria Bicentennial Tree
Note: As of 9/26/2020, only 3 Bicentennial Trees remain.
