BACKGROUND

Shockoe Bottom Neighborhood/Richmond Shockoe Small Area Plan

Public feedback continues to be being sought regarding the draft Richmond Shockoe Small Area Plan. The Richmond Shockoe Bottom Neighborhood is one of the city’s most unique and historic areas. It has been experiencing significant growth over the last few decades with the historic rehabilitation of vacant factories and warehouses into residential and mixed-use development, as well as construction of new buildings. Discussions and planning regarding the future of the Shockoe Bottom Neighborhood include development of cultural heritage sites and continued revitalization.

 

   The Richmond Shockoe Small Area Plan will also be a next step in the implementation of the GRTC Transit Company Pulse Corridor Plan, which focused on future development along the Pulse Corridor and including the area surrounding Main Street Station. The intent of the Richmond Shockoe Small Area Plan is to knit together policies and guidance embedded in the Pulse Corridor Plan, the ULI Rose Fellowship work, and the Richmond 300 Master Plan in order to form a unified approach to revitalization and development of this important neighborhood.

 

 

     Councilmember Newbille personally holds individual meetings that include her goals and accomplishments, topical agendas, and special guests. She invites all Richmond East End 7th Voter District residents to attend. Her meeting dates, times, locations, agendas, and special guests are subject to change.
