Introduction

In September 2015, the City of Richmond commissioned a Neighborhood Plan for the 520-acre area including VUU and the Chamberlayne Industrial Center. An Urban Design Associates team was selected to conduct this study and led the planning through a process-based engagement approach. During the making of this vision, the future of the neighborhood surrounding Chamberlayne Avenue and Brookland Park came into question. This Guidebook expands on the planning of the Chamberlayne corridor and engages the residents to understand the possibilities of the neighborhood.
