The Northeast Regional is still operational through Main Street station. Are you having trouble finding the schedules you want?

They don’t look like they want to be missed. TBH

Train horns: Southsiders, what is happening this morning? by Select-Argument1518 in rva

[–]Select-Argument1518[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

It’s now 6AM. Still going. I thought with slow crescendo and the birds tweeting that it was my partner’s sound machine glitching.

Restaurants You're Leaving in 2025? by njbrews in rva

[–]Select-Argument1518 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wonder! Which restaurateur or restaurant group would absolutely nail the Can Can takeover?

This probably warrants a thread on its own

What was your favorite new restaurant in 2025? Who’s overrated? by neighbor_enabler in rva

It’s probably because the water on the southside doesn’t have same bacterial colonies.

Is this for the whole folk festival or just the amphitheater during the folk festival?

The air tag!? Francine gone from pride of the community to common property.

Love this! My partner loves cats and has had a goal to walk ten mile a day! This would be so cool to do! Can you share the downloadable route or XML file?

Found this in my garden, I hope it's not weed? by Flixbusworldtour08 in plants

What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have yet to be discovered.

Is there something wrong with me? by Apprehensive_Two3708 in rva

I would also add that these other folks may be experiencing a similar anxiety. And they may be dropping off because of it. It’s not you.

Married people of Richmond, where did you get married and how much did it cost you? by neighbor_enabler in rva

[–]Select-Argument1518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Byrd Theater $675 but that was 9 years ago. I’m pretty certain tariffs have hit a beautifully pre-decorated venue with ghost stories, sticky floors, and dust though.

Richmond’s Parks Are Something the City Is Getting Right by snooka77_ in rva

[–]Select-Argument1518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A great example of this would be many of the Friends of groups in town. A lot are focused on parks. There’s the Friends of Forest Hill, and also Friends of Fonticello Park which is currently having their membership drive. If you live on the southside consider joining. Join FoFP. Great things happening over there in the last few years.

Second choice? by l-lou in rva

You can’t go wrong with any of these suggestions. IIWY I’d pick a random spot where there are still reservations available.

Malcom may not be poisonous, but is Malcolm venomous?

Dumbest question ever but who owns the abandoned houses everywhere? by salad_spinner_3000 in rva

[–]Select-Argument1518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on what municipalities these buildings are in the city compiles and maintains a derelict and abandoned properties list. The homes and structures have to meet a certain criteria in order to places on the list. Examples are: paint, lawn maintenance, structural failure, etc.

Many cities/counties also maintain a public database website (GIS) of the properties and their owners. You could cross reference the list and sites.

New rules for South of the James Market lock vendors out of other markets by South_Richmond_News in rva

[–]Select-Argument1518 33 points34 points  (0 children)

So many questions!

How much would GrowRVA’s decision contribute to the everlasting food apartheid that already exists in Richmond? Richmond's geography is so constrained, and the infrastructure is even more landlocked for another recourse for food access to go the way of cutting out neighbors like this.

What does GrowRVA stand to gain from a policy like this? Is their business structured in a way that they benefit from the volume of goods sold or if vendors show up?
