Despite big flashy, multimedia headlines in today’s TD (What’s going up in downtown Richmond? | Downtown Development Slideshow | Downtown Developments), as Urban Richmond? nicely puts it, “there’s no new information here”…I guess you need to cycle these same stories every couple of months as reminders.
Today’s important downtown stories are actually courtesy of Style and “LesterCat”:
- Canvassing the Neighborhood; With Richmond CenterStage and a project to fill vacant buildings with art, First Fridays hits a new level Nice overview of Gallery 5’s “Vacant Spaces = Artful Places” project. Hope to personally work with Tom Robinson soon on this project. See you at First Walk!
- John Murden is the Arthur Sulzberger of Richmond alt media (blog community). His latest genius is Carver & Jackson Ward News (see announcement). It’s already on my regular reading rotation. Hopefully, he can work the same CHPN magic with these two emerging neighborhoods.
