Manassas (/məˈnæs əs/;[8] formerly Manassas Junction)[9] is an independent city in the Commonwealth of Virginia. As of the 2010 census, the population was 37,821.[10] The city borders Prince William County, and the independent city of Manassas Park, Virginia. The Bureau of Economic Analysis includes both Manassas and Manassas Park with Prince William County for statistical purposes.

Manassas also serves as the seat of Prince William County. It surrounds the 38-acre (150,000 m2) county courthouse, but that county property is not part of the city. The City of Manassas has several important historic sites from the period 1850–1870.

The City of Manassas is part of the Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV Metropolitan Statistical Area and is in the Northern Virginia region.

History

In July 1861, the First Battle of Manassas—also known as the First Battle of Bull Run—was fought nearby, the first major land battle of the American Civil War. Manassas commemorated the 150th anniversary of the First Battle of Manassas on July 21–24, 2011.[11]

Fencing at Manassas Battlefield

The Second Battle of Manassas (or the Second Battle of Bull Run) was fought near Manassas on August 28–30, 1862. At that time, Manassas Junction was little more than a railroad crossing, but a strategic one, with rails leading to Richmond, Virginia, Washington, D.C., and the Shenandoah Valley. Despite these two Confederate victories, Manassas Junction was in Union hands for most of the war.

Following the war, the crossroads grew into the town of Manassas, which was incorporated in 1873. In 1894, Manassas was designated the county seat of Prince William County, replacing Brentsville. In 1975, Manassas was incorporated as an independent city, and as per Virginia law, was separated from Prince William County.

The Manassas Historic District; Cannon Branch Fort; Liberia, a plantation house; and the Manassas Industrial School for Colored Youth are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[12]

Geography

Manassas is mainly served by I-66, U.S. 29, Virginia State Route 234 Business and Virginia State Route 28.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 9.9 square miles (25.6 km2), of which 9.9 square miles (25.6 km2) is land and 0.1 square miles (0.3 km2) (0.5%) is water.[13]

Manassas has a council-manager system of government. As of October 2019 the city manager is William Patrick Pate; the mayor is Harry J. Parrish II; and the vice mayor is Pamela J. Sebesky.[1][2]

Climate

The climate in this area is characterized by hot, humid summers and generally mild to cool winters. According to the Köppen Climate Classification system, Manassas has a humid subtropical climate, abbreviated "Cfa" on climate maps.[14]

Neighborhoods

Some neighborhoods within the City of Manassas include:

Georgetown South

Georgetown South is a PUD 30 miles south of downtown Washington, D.C. in Manassas.[15] When it was built in the 1960s, it was seen as a "tony, southern sister for the District’s famous and affluent Georgetown".[16] It is composed entirely of 3-bedroom, 2-story red brick townhomes built between 1960 and 1970, some with exteriors painted in creams or pastels. The neighborhood features a community center that offers a walk-in pediatric clinic, seminars, workshops, and citizenship courses.[16] In spite of high hopes during construction, the neighborhood was hit extremely hard during the foreclosure crisis. "At the height of the housing bubble, nearly 60 percent of residents were homeowners," but in 2013, 60% of residents were renters.[16] As houses eventually became vacant, they left in their wake room for crime to creep in. Today, the neighborhood is known more for its elevated crime rate, including the use of drugs and violent domestic crimes, than it is for its history or connection to the nation's capital.[16]

Old Town

Old Town Manassas, also called the Manassas Historic District, is a neighborhood in the city-center of Manassas. According to Historic Manassas, this teeny seven-by-one-block area alone contains 206 buildings and one contributing object.[17] Its northern border is Portner Avenue and its southern border is Prince William Street.[18] As recently as the early 1990s, Olde Town Manassas was known to be rundown, and was primarily used by workers commuting from the area into Washington, D.C. In 1995, however, local businessowner Loy E. Harris founded Historic Manassas and invested in the area in an effort to bring it back to life. Harris's death in 1999 from cancer was felt in the community,[19] but his organization, Historic Manassas, remained. In the 2010s, further efforts were made to make the area successful not only commercially but residentially. Developers seized the opportunity and constructed four-story townhomes along eastern Center Street, eastern Church Street, and Prescott Avenue to usher in a younger generation of homeowners seeking urban amenities in a suburban setting.[20] On the opposite end of the neighborhood sits the Harris Pavillion, an outdoor venue that is converted to an ice skating rink in the winter.[21] Just south of Old Town sits the Manassas Museum, which commemorates the city's history and involvement in the American Civil War.[22] Old Town Manassas contains several notable buildings:

  • Manassas Presbyterian Church (1875)

Old Town Triangle

The Old Town Triangle is a historic residential district adjacent to Old Town Manassas. It is named for its triangular shape, with three street borders: Grant Avenue, Sudley Road, and Portner Avenue.[18] The Old Town Triangle mostly comprises spacious colonial, manor, and single-story homes built between 1900 and 1955.[23] They are valued substantially higher than similar homes in adjacent neighborhoods.[23] The Old Town Triangle contains some of Manassas's most notable buildings, including:

  • Annaburg Manor, a historic manor that was once converted to a senior living facility,[24] and was purchased by the City of Manassas in July 2019 to be restored to its original design by an interested nonprofit. Built in 1892, the manor was the original home of Robert Portner. It was reportedly one of the first in the country to have mechanical air conditioning.[25]
  • Annaburg Manor Gatehouse, non-operable gatehouse for historic Liberia Manor[24]
  • Bennett House, a historic home converted to a bed-and-breakfast[26]

The Old Town Triangle also contains two recreational parks:[27]

  • Nelson Park, a public park flanked by Grant Avenue and Sudley Road, with a fountain that operates in spring and summer[27]
  • Walter Delisle Park, a toddler park with a playground and picnic tables[27]

Politics

For many years, Manassas was one of the more conservative areas of Virginia, but in 2008, it swung dramatically to the Democrats, going from a 13-point victory for George W. Bush to an 11-point win for Barack Obama. It has supported Democratic presidential candidates by double-digit margins in the last three elections, partly due to the larger Democratic trend in Northern Virginia.

Rail transportation

Manassas began life as Manassas Junction, so named for the railroad junction between the Orange and Alexandria Railroad and the Manassas Gap Railroad. The O&A owned the railway from Alexandria through Manassas to points south, ending in Orange, Virginia, while the MGRR was an independent line constructed from Manassas Junction through the Manassas Gap westward. In addition Manassas was the site of the first large scale military use of railroad transportation.

These original routes are now owned by the Norfolk Southern railroad. Amtrak and the Virginia Railway Express (VRE) provide regular inter-city and commuter service to the city and surrounding area on the tracks owned by NS.
