  • Court End Text Only
    Valentine Richmond History Walks Self-Guided Walk of the Court End Neighborhood - Text Only Version All directions are in italics. The tour starts at East Clay and 11th streets, in front of the Wickham House. Please use caution while walking and crossing streets. Welcome to Court End! This residential neighborhood flourished following the move of the state capital from Williamsburg to Richmond and the completion of the Virginia State Capitol building in 1788. Court End took its name from its proximity to the court building. With all three branches of government nearby during the 19th century, many professionals chose to live close to the action. 1 The Wickham House | EAST CLAY AND 11TH STREETS This house, built for John and Elizabeth Wickham in 1812, was designed by architect Alexander Parris, who was in town to design the Governor’s mansion. Fun fact: the Wickham’s house was much more opulent than the Governor’s mansion and cost twice as much! This Neoclassical structure was inhabited by the Wickham’s, their 19 children and more than 15 enslaved African Americans. Labor provided by the enslaved workforce enabled the Wickham’s to live a lavish lifestyle like many wealthy White Southerners at the time. In 1882, entrepreneur Mann S. Valentine II purchased the property and displayed his archaeological and ethnographic collections here. In 1898, the house became the first home of the Valentine Museum. Visit thevalentine.org for a virtual tour! Directly across the street is the Maupin Maury House, 1016 East Clay Street. 1 2 Maupin Maury House | 1016 EAST CLAY STREET This Greek Revival house was originally located at 1105 East Clay Street and was built in 1846 by Dr.

All members will be given tickets for two free drinks and thereafter a cash bar. There will be free sodas and hors d’oeuvres. It is a great chance to meet and chat with your neighbors, and to join the CHA if you have not already done so. If you have joined the CHA or renewed your membership at any of the three summer picnics, then you are a member until December 31, 2010. There will be an “express” sign in for those who are already members for 2010, so join before the party! If you want to join or rejoin on the day, fill out the member- ship form in this newsletter.
