I plan to catalog the various geographical regions of my fair city, Richmond, VA.
Periodically (I have no set interval starting out. Weekly? Monthly?) I’ll post an entry about a specific part of Richmond city that includes some geography, background, landmarks, and whatever other relevant and interesting tidbits I can uncover. All of this will be accompanied by photographs I take while visiting these neighborhoods/districts, and its my hope that these pictures will reflect well the character of each locale.
I’m not sure where I’ll start yet, but it certainly won’t be one of the major sections like The Fan or Shockoe Bottom. I’ll hit those, too, but they’ll take more time to plan, because I have to find a happy medium between educating the uninitiated and shying away from too-heavily-tread ground.
Keep an eye out!
UPDATE: I believe I’m going to start with Union Hill.
Good choice to start. Make sure that you make it all the way back to Carrington Street.
wow, sounds awesome … how can I get in … I geek out about the history stuff
@Patrick: Well it’s going to be a solo effort for now, but from the start I’ve planned on doing something Flickr-related to tie into this.
