A Brief History of Colonial Place and Riverview By Norman Pollock, Professor Emeritus, Old Dominion University (and former CP resident) The history of Colonial Place and Riverview began at the turn of the 20th century during a period of growth for the City of Norfolk. The city annexed a farming community just outside of town and slated it for suburban development; Colonial Place and Riverview were part of this development. Suburban devel- opment at that time depended upon connection to the trolley system--a connection that still exists in the neighborhood (although the trolleys no longer require electric lines). Concurrent with the development of Colonial Place was the historic Jamestown Exposition, marking the three-hundredth anniversary of the founding of Jamestown. Held in 1907 on fairgrounds near Sewell's Point, this event inspired the developers of the neighborhood to discard their original name, Sterling Place, and rename the development Colonial Place. In keeping with the new motif, all of the east-west streets were named after the original thirteen colonies. By 1908, the housing boom brought on by the vibrant economy at the turn of the century began to rapid -ly dissipate. It remained sluggish until World War I, when the influx of military personnel and their fami-lies into Norfolk's Naval Base (built on the site of the Jamestown Exposition) created a high demand for middle- class housing in Colonial Place. In fact, most of the homes standing in Colonial Place today were built during the late teens and early 1920s. (Continued on page 5) 2 January 2020 cprv.net Looking Back This article appeared in the Norfolk Virginian-Pilot on Monday, January 29, 1912. Long time residents may recall incidents of vehicles being found in our waterways, but this could well be the first. 3 January 2020 cprv.net Garden Club News New Year … New Name By Glen Coats At its December meeting, the Garden Club formally adopted "The Garden Club of Colonial Place and Riverview" as its new name thus replacing the previ- ous moniker of "CPRV Garden Club." Along with its new name, the Club has several exciting events and activities planned for the new year, the first being a Backyard Garden Tour showcasing the beauty of our neighborhoods on May 2. Look for more details about this fun event along with other activities and news items in future editions of this newsletter. The Garden Club wishes everyone a very happy and prosperous New Year with hopes that your gardens and landscapes grow well. 4 January 2020 cprv.net A Brief History of Colonial Place and Riverview (Continued from page 2) Riverview, on the other hand, began its development a few years before Colonial Place. This head start proved to be Riverview's buffer against the diminished housing demand in 1908. Riverview saw many state- ly homes built in the first decade of the century. By 1930, both Colonial Place and Riverview were well established suburban neighborhoods -- neighbor- hoods whose residents moved in, raised their families, grew old, and eventually passed their homes onto younger families who started the cycle anew. Many home owners today are knowledgeable of the previous owners of their homes and often possess at least a verbal, if not a written history. In the late 1960s, Colonial Place and Riverview were united by a single civic league, which through the efforts of the Stabilization Committee, successfully guided these two neighborhoods through a period when urban deterioration threatened many beautiful neighborhoods. Today, these two neighborhoods continue to maintain their original charm and middle-class desirability. They are coveted by prospective home buy- ers for their beautiful old homes, parks, and water views, as well as for the patina of nearly one-hundred years of history. Riverview celebrates its one-hundredth anniversary in 2000; Colonial Place in 2003. In Sep- tember of 1999 Riverview was designated a National Historic Site and placed on the National Register of Historic Places. Colonial Place received its designation in June 2001. In 1975 “The Evolution of an Urban Neighborhood: Colonial Place, Norfolk, Virginia” was published by the Institute of Govern- ment, University of Virginia. Section II, authored by Dr. Norman Pollock, chronicles the history of Colonial Place as part of a larger study on racial integration.

Protecting our property and neighborhood is a community effort. If you see something, say something. If you are involved in an incident, FILE A POLICE REPORT. If a police report is not filed, the police do not know about it and resources will be allocated elsewhere. You can file a police report ONLINE without having to wait for an officer to respond.

One of America’s oldest global trade destinations, Norfolk has been transformed into a global center for international security and coastal resilience. We are home to Naval Station Norfolk, the world’s largest naval base, and NATO’s only headquarters in North America. We also serve as a national leader in health care, transportation, higher education, and visual and performing arts. Norfolk is investing in transformative projects that will enhance our assets, foster inclusive economic growth, and develop talented and motivated residents. In 2018, we launched the transformation of the St. Paul’s Area, which will reshape three public housing communities that encompass more than 200 acres near our thriving downtown. Investments in the people, physical infrastructure, and anchor institutions that are native to this area are helping us to attract new businesses and entrepreneurs that will drive regional productivity and growth. The neighborhoods of the St. Paul’s Area are just one example of the 16 qualified opportunity zones, the most of any city or county in the Commonwealth of Virginia, that we hope you will consider for investment.
