Civil War soldier who died in Northern Virginia is finally laid to rest

This article was written by InsideNoVa's news partner, WTOP , and republished with permission. Sign up for WTOP's breaking news, traffic and weather alerts as well as daily emails. A Civil War soldier who died more than 160 years ago in Prince William County has been given a final resting place. He was laid to rest with full military funeral honors at Arlington National Cemetery on Nov. 4. “We gather to honor an unknown soldier whose life story is not fully known to history, yet whose sacrifice is fully worthy of the nation’s gratitude,” Chaplain Capt. Phil Morlock said while leading the ceremony. “We know that he answered a call greater than himself. We know that he stood in a time when the nation was tested by fire.” In March 2024, archaeologists discovered the soldier’s remains at Manassas National Battlefield Park at the site of a Civil War field hospital. His identity is unknown, but forensic analysis shows he was around 16 to 19 years old. The Union infantryman died during the Second Battle of Manassas in 1862. “As I watched that ceremony today, I felt it very hard not to cry,” said David Duncan, president of the American Battlefield

Manassas City Council approves Center Street rezoning, paving the way for new apartments, parking garage

A proposal for over 160 apartments and a new public parking garage in Old Town Manassas is moving forward. The Manassas City Council voted 3-1 Monday to advance the project along Center Street through a rezoning from industrial and commercial to planned city center. The first-reading vote followed public comments from residents both supporting and opposing the development at the former Manassas Ice and Fuel Company, or MIFCO, site, which the city purchased for over $3 million last year. Those opposed to the development raised concerns about increased traffic near schools and downtown, potential costs to taxpayers, unanswered questions about the city’s financial obligations and whether the proposed buildings would diminish Old Town’s historic character. Some asked the council to delay the decision or consider a smaller project. Supporters argued the development could attract more visitors, increase foot traffic and bring additional customers to downtown businesses. Others said the underused property needs redevelopment and that the project could contribute to the city’s economic growth. MLG Construction Management submitted the unsolicited development proposal under the Public-Private Education Facilities and Infrastructure Act in September 2025. The council approved an interim development agreement May 11, and the city later initiated the rezoning process.

Seton girls basketball learns from a college coaching legend

Harry Perretta knows how to lighten a moment. During a break at Seton’s two-hour girls varsity basketball practice Tuesday in Manassas, he asks a player what she should do first if she ever played for him. She mentions a play they just ran. It’s a good answer, but not the one Perretta is looking for. Perretta tells her any player must first pay attention. Then, with a storyteller’s perfect cadence who knows his audience, he explains why, pointing to a banner of Saint John Paul II on the far wall of the gym. “When he talks about religion, he’s infallible,” Perretta said in reference to the former Catholic pope. “And when I’m inside these four lines and I’m talking basketball, I’m infallible.” The comment draws laughter from those nearby. Then, comes the topper. He walks off the court and quietly says to one observer with a smile, “How’d you like that one?” Of course, Perretta doesn’t really think he’s infallible, but when he’s on the basketball court and teaching, players and coaches would be wise to listen to him. Not because of quick one-liners. But because he knows a little something about coaching basketball. For 42 seasons, Perretta led the
