Richmond is always changing. Businesses come and g Richmond is always changing. Businesses come and go. Neighborhoods evolve. But every now and then, a place stays true to what made it special in the first place.

For nearly 20 years, @crossroadsrva has welcomed Richmonders — not by chasing trends, but by being a good neighbor, supporting other local businesses, and creating a place where community comes naturally.

Stop by this former neighborhood service station, grab a coffee, spend a few minutes talking with owner Will “Willy Beans” Herring, and settle in on the patio for a while.

Every great summer day starts with the same questi Every great summer day starts with the same question…”Want to get ice cream?” 🍦

We said yes, headed to @rubyscoopsic in Brookland Park, and remembered why it’s one of Richmond’s favorite places for a scoop. Because some summer traditions are worth keeping local.

Tucked into an alley in the Fan, @ricksgardenrva h Tucked into an alley in the Fan, @ricksgardenrva has quietly become one of those places for Richmonders looking for a pause — a place to admire the flowers, watch the bees at work, take in local art by @visiblyhidden_, or simply enjoy a reminder of community.

What began more than 35 years ago as one neighbor’s effort to transform an overlooked corner into something beautiful has grown into one of Richmond’s most treasured green spaces.

It’s a reminder that some of our city’s best spots aren’t marked by signs or highlighted on maps. They’re created by people who care enough to keep showing up.

Some places along the mighty James are marked by s Some places along the mighty James are marked by signs, trails, and a steady flow of foot traffic. Others are simply found. 

For us, Cooper’s Island is one of those places. Tucked along the stretch of the James between the iconic CSX A-Line Bridge and the Nickel Bridge, it serves as a good reminder of just how much wildness still exists in the heart of our city.

Do yourself a favor this summer, push beyond the busiest trails and discover a different side of the James.
