City Stadium Neighborhood: Keep the Kickers

The redevelopment of the City Stadium Site is of importance to the entire greater Richmond region, but this engagement process focused on the input and perspectives of those neighbors in closest proximity to the site—the people who interact with the site on a daily basis. The neighborhoods specifically targeted were: the Stadium Neighborhood, the Carillon, Carytown South, Rothesay Circle, and Carytown.

Storefront led a prioritization exercise which revealed that most of the surrounding neighborhoods prefer the City Stadium site (currently used by the Richmond Kickers soccer team), continue use as sports complex.

Robinson Street Association Identifies Streetscape Needs

Storefront responded to a request from the newly formed Robinson Street Association to assist in a prioritization process by, first, organizing an urban design walk down the corridor with members of the City of Richmond’s Department of Planning and Development Review (PDR) in February of 2013. This report is a result of workshops around those observations.
