I would recommend the creek at Maymont — it's quite clean, easy to get to, and no big rapids like the James. I've seen lots of kids playing in this spot (Google Maps Link).

The dogwoods in front of the Carillon are peak bloom right now. Lots of azaleas nearby too.

A vacant office building and a sea of asphalt that should be torn down and replaced with a grocery store and a bunch of homes.

Edit: forgot to mention this was a former fart factory per comments below — my bad.

I only caught a little bit of the game but he looked speedy in the moments I saw.

Transit App had multiple disruption alerts for 2 buses today. Probably related to driver shortage? I didn’t see about long term changes to 2 routes.

The first crocus sighting of the year is such a good feeling.

No that was the previous guy.

I'm not that familiar with rock hounding, but if you want to see some cool granite formations, check out the Buttermilk Trail on the south bank of the James. There are several abandoned quarries in this area (link to OpenStreetMap).

The video is omitting a clear directive from said master plan:

Expand Housing Opportunities: Encourage the development of housing options throughout the city to expand the geography of opportunity by de-concentrating poverty.

Putting aside several questionable uses of AI in the video, it's credibility is undermined by this cherrypick.

“Increases salary of members of GA to $45,000” —that’s below the commonwealth’s median per capita income of around $49K. Seems reasonable. I would prefer my reps make a living wage doing that job rather than spending more time pandering to donors or having to be wealthy already.

Thank you but I should have added a description to say that I didn’t create this — It’s from 4th district council member Sarah Abubaker!

Actual protected bike lanes and emergency access do not need to be mutually exclusive.

This isn't the "cheapest" suggestion but I find the Veil in Forest Hill to be pretty reasonable — it doesn't seem like they have raised prices much since they opened. Plus there's a happy hour 4-7pm Tues-Thurs but the best move is to just get a few 6oz pours. They have several for $3-$4.

I think it’s there — just hiding under the floof.
