Chart House in Alexandria, Virginia, is a popular waterfront restaurant known for its scenic views of the Potomac River and lively outdoor dining. It serves about 3,000 customers each week and has been a key part of Alexandria’s dining scene. The old patio had open seating with umbrellas, offering minimal protection from the weather and an outdated look, which affected guest comfort.

To improve this, Chart House added a modern, all-white motorized pergola over their 1,791-square-foot patio. The retractable roof provides flexible shelter from sun and rain while keeping an open-air feel.

The motorized pergola transformed Chart House’s patio into a stylish and adaptable outdoor space, increasing guest satisfaction and reinforcing its status as a top waterfront dining spot.
