Richmond, Virginia recent comments:

We just had dinner and drinks at thisplace and it rocked. nice staff, good food and even better prices.

its either a reservoir for drinking water, or one of those "undisclosed locations" with a bunker for the presidential cabinet... I'm betting it's just a reservoir, and the cameras are a post-911 guard to discourage CBR attacks.

saw that band rock out few times. loved hanging at that house, til it burned down.

Great place to get robbed..

Try not to step on a crack head on your way in.

steven, I checked using Google Street View, and you're right. But I'm not a Richmond resident, so someone please adjust the contour appropriately!

actually home team grill is on the corner of main and vine which is a little further west than this.

THE BAY

Overpriced and overrated

The church was founded by 23 slaves in 1859. The small congregation initially met on Sunday afternoons in the basement of the white Leigh Street Baptist Church. In 1865, after emancipation, the church grew out of Leigh Street Baptist and built their own building on the West side of a gulley called "Bloody Run," near Libby Hill. The sanctuary, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, holds 1200 people.

The Union Hill area of Richmond, VA, is located on the high western bluff above Shockoe Valley, just east of Downtown Richmond. The neighborhood is on the National Register of Historic Places. A remarkable mix of homes, churches and commercial buildings are balanced along the irregular, picturesque and sometimes narrow streets that follow the curves of the original hilly terrain. The community takes it's name from the joining of two large hills via street grading that began in the late 1800's and continued through the early 1900's. The homes that line Jefferson Park have a clear view of downtown Richmond. Bordered on the south by Jefferson Avenue, on the north by Carrington and O Streets, on the east by 25th Street, and by Mosby on the west. Union Hill's history began early in the nineteenth century.

never open, nobody ever goes in or out

It also includes very nice statues of all the Presidents of the United States that came from Virginia - eight in all: Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Harrison, Tyler, Taylor, and Wilson. That's more than any other state.

There is a 4-4-0 steam locomotive is buried in the hill, along with the bodies of 2 workers that were never recovered when the tunnel collapsed.

small gallery mostly focused on local crafts and gifts

great lunch spot, southern-ish food, but WAY too crowded if you're trying to go on first fridays.

bums galore at monroe park

non-stop loitering goes on outside here
