  • 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.

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.

  • SPRING 2013 400 Years of Richmond History in Only 50 Objects
    SPRING 2013 400 Years of Richmond History in Only 50 Objects Known by some local citizens as “Richmond’s Attic,” the Valentine Richmond History Center has recently gone global while remaining local with a new exhibition, “A History of Richmond in 50 Objects” (RVA50). Inspired by and paying homage to “A History of the World in 100 Objects,” the groundbreaking partnership of the British Museum and BBC Radio 4 in 2010 that focused on world history through the eyes of one hundred experts, this exhibition continues the dialogue in a way that is uniquely Richmond and was curated by David B. Voelkel, the new Elise H. Wright Curator of General Collections. He used this project as an opportunity to delve into the museum’s holdings of more than 1.5 million objects. RVA50 explores the history of Richmond, Virginia, through a selection of objects from across the general, archives, and costume and textile collections. Creating a balanced exhibition led to many curatorial moments of decision as to inclusion and exclusion as one by one various possible museum artifacts were unearthed from their storage locations for examination and consideration. Each object had to compete for one of the limited 50 spaces not only in historical Continued on page 2 Four Hundred Years... Continued from page 1 significance, but in size, form, and type. The designation of the #1 object is on the historical chronology rather than a ranking of “importance” – a murky place in any instance. From #1 - an 1819 imprint of John Smith’s 1624 Map of Virginia to #50 - the rainbow flag that flew at the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond in 2011, RVA50 examines how objects contain layers of meaning that are both personal and public.
