North Side (Richmond Virginia)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The North Side is an area comprised of northern Richmond, Virginia and some parts of Henrico County, Virginia. The area is home to many diverse neighborhoods, including Barton Heights, Bellevue, Ginter Park, Washington Park, Hermitage Rd, Highland Park, Sherwood Park, etc. These neighborhoods are made up of houses with a variety of architectural styles, which include Arts and Crafts Bungalows, Victorian, Romanesque Revival, and Queen Anne houses among other styles.

Some notable commercial and civic attractions on the North Side are Virginia Center Commons shopping mall, remnants of the Azalea Mall, Joseph Bryan Park, Richmond International Raceway, and Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden.


While some consider Ashland, Virginia to be a part of the North Side, others believe it is too far north to be included in this classification.
