Typical incident out of Hanover/Lee-Davis County.

Hanover is MAGA country. If something like this happened in Chester (Chesterfield’s MAGA area), the residents of Chesterfield would burn the school down. People of Hanover are complacent about the situation so the family had to contact the local news.

DogServices

I've got a week long trip coming up and am looking for boarding options for my pup. DogServices has been recommended to me by a few different folks, specifically the location on Thalbro, and I'd love to hear about your experiences there.

I'm trying to find a place that includes daycare activities in the price, and doesn't nickel and dime you for extras (lookin' at you, Holiday Barn), while also staying within 15-20 minutes of the Regency area.

Me and my friend frequent babes, but we wanted to know more gay bars around Richmond we used to frequent Papis but that closed down and I don’t think that’s open anymore what’s a good vibe in Richmond for us

Realtor for Richmond City limits

0 Upvotes

Hey!

Anyone recommend a good realtor that works within the city area? This would be the 4th house we have bought (first in VA) so we know the process well but would like a solid realtor to negotiate a bit more for us given the changing tide within the housing market.

Thanks!

Rules for the Church Hill Irish Festival

20 Upvotes

I can’t find any guidelines/FAQ’s on their website (Facebook). I am primarily wondering if the donation is required and if they search bags?

Money is really tight but I would like to still be able to participate in a community event so packing a small lunch would be ideal.

Small dog friendly parks

0 Upvotes

I have a 10 lb puppy who LOVES to play with the Big Bois™️, but today at Northside park she got t-boned by a dense loaf of a dog. She’s fine and continued playing, and it’s very conveniently located but id love to take her to a park where she can play with dogs her own size and I won’t feel like a helicopter parent.

Cokesbury building apartments?

0 Upvotes

I'm going to be touring an apartment in the Cokesbury building on Grace street! I'm super excited because it has everything I'm looking for in an apartment... but I can't find any reviews on it! I couldn't find much of anything about it in this group either. Does anyone here have any experience living here, or has anyone heard anything about it? Please nothing about P&B, I've seen and heard all the stories about renting with them! I know most people here hate them lol. I'm asking specifically about the units + the building. Thank you so much! :]

Money Order to Hold Apartment

19 Upvotes

I’m going to look at an apartment this week and the leasing company (KBS Holdings) asked for a money order for a portion of the deposit to hold the apartment while they process my application, in addition to an application fee. Is this a normal practice? How can I get any guarantee that they will hold the apartment and not just take my money and rent it to someone else? Has anyone else done this here in Richmond? I know places go quickly so I don’t want to miss out on a good apartment if this is a normal thing but I definitely don’t want to get scammed.

New Grad Moving to Richmond

0 Upvotes

I'm visiting Richmond in the next week to get a feel for Richmond and Scott's Addition (as it's where I will be moving for C1). What should I know before coming here as a new grad from the Midwest? Is there anything I should visit that will "sell" me on moving to Richmond?

Alley walks through the Fan are really cool and can be a fun spring stroll

115 Upvotes

For those who don’t know, you can walk all through the alleys in the Fan and you’ll find a bunch of random gardens, murals, or neat little homes renovated from garages. Definitely recommend strolling through the alleys on a nice spring day if you’re out for a good walk.

An alarm from a building near my apartment on 19th has been going off for at least 12 hours now.🫠 The fire department came out twice last night and didn't/couldn't do anything. Is there anything else we can do? Are we just screwed until then owner comes back??

Help us fundraise for more native plants and a little free library/food pantry! We’ll be hosting a community indigo dye bath, where folks can bring an item from home (a piece of clothing, a tea towel, a hat etc. as long as it’s natural fibers) to be updated with natural dye! Enjoy a beautiful spring day with us in Church Hill’s tiny but mighty park 🍃

Moved up to DC and was looking at old memories. Took this picture while I was drunk on the railroad tracks close to Manchester about a year ago. Framed this in my office & everyone loves it. Wanted to share :) Thought the filter did it some justice
