  • Monroe Ward Rezoning Summary
    MONROE WARD REZONING SUMMARY June 2019 WHY IS THE CITY REZONING MONROE WARD? In July of 2017 Richmond City Council adopted The Pulse Corridor Plan, a corridor-long planning document that outlines steps which the City needs to take to change land use around the new Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) route running from Rocketts Landing to Willow Lawn. Of the 14 stations on the Pulse corridor, six stations were determined to be priority station areas based on market conditions, development readiness and pedestrian orientation, and were determined to have the most potential for Transit-Oriented Development. In order to encourage this more dense development, the next step is for the City to rezone each station area. The first, Cleveland Station at Scott’s Addition, was rezoned to TOD-1 and B-7 in 2017. The next priority is to rezone the Arts District Station which is made up of Monroe Ward and Jackson Ward. Because these two historic neighborhoods have their own distinct characters, it is preferable that the rezonings proceed in two phases. 2 Monroe Ward Rezoning Overview - May 2019 PRINCIPLES OF THE PULSE PLAN: Development along the corridor will seek to follow six guiding principles: 1. Mixed-Use: Housing, employment, entertainment and daily needs are near each station area. Mixed use can be vertical or horizontal within a neighborhood context. 2. Viable Transportation Options: Walking and biking to accomplish everyday tasks is an option for people living and working near station areas. 3. Dense, Compact Development: New buildings can be taller and larger in the Pulse corridor to add housing and jobs to create a more walkable and vibrant area.

  • Annual Report 2017 - 2018
    ANNUAL REPORT 2017 - 2018 Details Make a Difference www.historicrichmond.com 1 FROM OUR LEADERSHIP Details Make A Difference In our Spring Newsletter, we discussed stepping back to look at “The Big Picture” and how our Vision came into Focus with a shared set of Preservation Values. With that Big Picture now in focus, it is also clear that the Details Make All the Difference. The details are what connect us across generations to those that walked these streets before us. It is the details that connect us to the lives and struggles – both large and small – of those people in these places. For two centuries, an upturned torch at Monumental Church has reflected the lives extinguished too soon by the Richmond Theatre Fire. For more than a century, an eagle on the General Assembly Building’s 1912 façade stood sentinel watching over our Capitol. Several blocks away, another eagle, radiator grill in its grasp (and tongue in cheek), signaled the advent of the automobile. Exceptional craftsmanship has stood the test of time in Virginia Union University’s “nine noble” buildings of Virginia granite. This attention to detail said “We are strong. We are solid. And we will strive and succeed for centuries to come.” It is seemingly insignificant details such as these that help us to understand that our lives are significant – that our actions can - and do - make an impact on the world around us. We are excited to have rolled up our sleeves to focus on those details. In this report, we share with you an update on our work in 2017-2018, including: Preservation • Monumental Church • Masons’ Hall Revitalization • Neighborhood Revitalization Projects Rehabilitation • Westhampton School • Downtown Revitalization/ Blues Armory Advocacy & Education • Master Planning • Rehab Expo • Lecture Programs • Golden Hammer Awards Cover Photo: Painting the east stairwell of Monumental Church thanks to the Elmon B.

Smith ABSTRACT The Virginia State Constitution of 1869 mandated that public school education be open to both black and white students on a segregated basis. In the city of Richmond, Virginia the public school system indeed offered separate school houses for blacks and whites, but public schools for blacks were conducted in small, overcrowded, poorly equipped and unclean facilities. At the beginning of the twentieth century, public schools for black students in the city of Richmond did not change and would not for many decades.

Suddenly, while the curators were Janice M. Hathcock Ann E. Henderson making their final choices about exhibition items from our Gregg D. Kimball collections, the Library was surprised to receive word of a very Mary Beth McIntire special “find” that has now made its way back home to Virginia. During the winter of 1862–1863, more than 100,000 Union editor soldiers with the Army of the Potomac tramped through and Ann E. Henderson camped in Stafford County, Virginia. By early in December 1862, the New York Times reported that military activity had left the copy editor Emily J. Salmon town of Stafford Court House “a scene of utter ruin.” One casualty of the Union occupation was the “house of records” located graphic designer behind the courthouse. Here, the Times recounted, “were deposited all the important Amy C. Winegardner deeds and papers pertaining to this section for a generation past.” Documents “were found lying about the floor to the depth of fifteen inches or more around the door-steps and in photography the door-yard.” Anyone who has ever tried to research Stafford County’s early history can Pierre Courtois attest to the accuracy of the newspaper’s prediction that “it is impossible to estimate the inconvenience and losses which will be incurred by this wholesale destruction.” contributors Barbara C.
