- Viewsheds
- Street and alley closings
- Waterfront access
- Development standards for the former Tarmac property (also known as “Echo Harbor”)
- J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College Downtown Campus
- Shockoe stormwater management
- Downtown infrastructure
- Main Street Station, Lumpkin’s Jail site, and African-American heritage
- Coordinated planning and design issues related to the Commonwealth of Virginia
The public is encouraged to attend to share thoughts on the amendments with the City Planning Commission.
The Downtown Plan and the proposed amendments are available for review in City Hall, Room 510 or online at: http://www.richmondgov.com/forms/DowntownPlan.aspx.
