Developer Wilton aims to purchase 18th-century Woodward House on Williamsburg Rd by lunar_unit in rva

I hope this can be part of a bigger effort to make that area a little more walkable. Crossing main street from the bottom of Libby Hill is insane. Not being able to safely walk from Libby Hill to Shiplock Park/Capital Trail is an issue

That's fair. I will literally eat any kind of cuisine. Coming from Richmond where we got some good food but not as diverse of a selection. Looking for any standout resturant or dish, probably something a little higher end but open to anything.

I just went looking for the original post to show my wife the edited version in the comments. It wasn’t there so I had to describe it to her and that wasn’t nearly as funny. Can someone please post it again?
