So wonderful seeing our community come together to make Church Hill more beautiful! I agree about Armstrong’s collaboration with George Wythe! So wonderful.

Nice pics Church Hill People’s News! We’re going to come back with a sign describing the maintenance of the site, which will be the responsibility of Groundwork RVA and the Green Team. Please help us keep it looking great for the community!! <3

Any idea or word as to why the benches and the ‘sign board’ have been removed?

@ann – It is my understanding that the property owner has become apprehensive about the space as being perceived as too public. I have heard that the situation is fluid.

Nice while it lasted. That was a hell of an investment in time, effort, and hope on the part of everybody involved except the owner.
