ALEXANDRIA, VA A new art installation coming to Alexandria s Waterfront Park offers a glimpse at what the floor of the Potomac River looks like.
The Groundswell temporary art installation by Mark Reigelman is the third in the Site See: New Views in Old Town public art series at Waterfront Park. The art will open later in March and be on display through November 2021.
