Alexandria Times is a newspaper in Alexandria, Virginia, focusing on news and events in the city of Alexandria itself by covering local news, sports, business, pets, and community. It was started to provide an additional alternative to the current local papers and to include more "hard news" coverage.[2]

Founded in 2005 by John Arundel, the newspaper is a free weekly with both home delivery in some ZIP codes and bulk availability in newspaper boxes around the city.[3] It prints around 19,000 copies each week.[1] The co-publisher and executive editor is Denise Dunbar[2] and the editor is Missy Schrott.

Beginning in 2007, the Times publishes a weekly feature called "Out of The Attic." It is authored by staff of the Office of Historic Alexandria for the newspaper and the city's website.[4] The stories feature the history of the city, including historic photos.
