I somehow deleted my comment - productive Tuesday.

My description of the event: “they definitely shit the bed with the “block party” that was just one tent selling beer, one food truck, and four school cafeteria tables”

But yeah there’s a new ramen spot I think called Slurp that is I believe going into the building spotty dog is in. Someone (think the owner?) was saying on Facebook they are aiming for a March opening

There’s also a new cocktail bar from Jasper owners called Emerald Lounge going into that area some point this year.

In before “we are looking forward to opening up our exciting new brewery location to a Richmonders as soon as possible in 2023”.

But I actually appreciate you emailing as I would definitely want to know more

Nah you did it right. Learned their food is mediocre at best and didn’t have to deal with the poor service

I agree. There was one on 32nd and clay that was listed at the peak of the housing market for 700 but was also 4200 sqft and in the nicest part of church hill (IMO) that I would say was expensive but worth it if you had the money.

But the one I’m seeing now is one of those that you mention that were going for 400-500 at the peak of the market, not 700K for a 2400 sqft house behind ocean grocery, with no garage, and interest rates at their current level

It looks like they even sold 2 there in the past couple of months for 600k which is just as insane to me.

I very much enjoy living in church hill and have a vastly different experience living here than it seems the person I replied to does, but if I had the money to afford a 700k house I wouldn’t think it was money well spent.

Its wild reading the first half of this and then seeing a developer is trying to sell a house on pink for $700k

Fair enough. Then I guess the logical thing to me would just be to link to them cause clearly they just couldn’t find them.

Maybe I’m naive but the tone of the original post seemed to me they clearly didn’t want to make a post if they didn’t feel they had to

Did you read the post? They clearly have read the previous posts and have a specific question those posts haven’t been able to answer

I get the issues people have with low effort where do I live/should I move to Richmond posts, but I think it’s unfair to classify all new posts in that category when someone has clearly put some effort in to avoid doing exactly that.

Edit: OP - if you have questions about church hill you can dm me. My first thought based purely on a very high level overview of what you’re looking for is forest hill could be a good fit

Dunno if you’re near Union market but pretty sure there was a sign out front IIRC. I searched between Libby and chimbo and couldn’t see one

That cat looks similar to the one on the flyers I have seen around church hill. Let me see if I can go find one and I’ll share the image just in case

Edit: I am losing my mind. I can’t find a poster anywhere despite seeing like 5 a day for the past two weeks

Just a random thought, anyone know what’s up with Chef Johnny? Haven’t seen him post around here for a while

If your housing budget is a million dollars I’m sure you’re able to live a “comfortable” life pretty much anywhere, car or no car.
