How Many Businesses Closed in Annandale? 2013 Year in Review
Not every Annandale business will be around to ring in the new year. Here's a look back at the ones that have closed.
2013 was a busy year for Fairfax County, but also for the Annandale community. In addition to the usual school and police news, there were also some changes with a few longtime Annandale businesses.
While many new businesses opened, a couple of of places shut their doors for good.
Here's a look back at some of the business that closed this year, as reported by Annandale Patch.
