Museum Could Anchor Richmond’s River Walk 

Tools

You are on target about moving valued, historic properties to locations where they can be used and viewed. I wish the powers that be would relocate the White House of the Confederacy to the vacant property at Second and Byrd streets. It would be the far end of a wonderful river walk including the Canal, Tredegar and the White House. It could be a tourist destination.

    • Denver Dreaming

      Richmond should take the time to look a little deeper when borrowing from other cities. Claims made by proponents of new ballparks usually are overstated.

      "We live in an age of increasing ubiquity, in which the quirks and eccentricities of local businesses are being overshadowed by the blandness of national retailers and service providers."
