The Old Scale from the Candy Store

The Old Scale from Alexandria

This candy store is on Fairfax Street, just across the final stop of Dash About, the free ride bus operating on weekends between King Street Metro station and the City Hall.




It used to be there a nice shop with Christmas toys of all kind: small Christmas trees, small music boxes, small railroads, even small town models imagining fairy houses and streets. The shop was open not only for Christmas and there was always a large audience - only the toys were too cool to be bought, so eventually they closed the business. Now the candy store tries to keep the same spirit. Anyway, the Candy Barrels look cool.



The next house to the candy store is the Visitor Center, with entries from both Fairfax and King streets. The waterfront is three blocks down King Street.
