Union Hill
The Union Hill area of Richmond, VA, is located on the high western bluff above Shockoe Valley, just east of Downtown Richmond. The neighborhood is on the National Register of Historic Places. A remarkable mix of homes, churches and commercial buildings are balanced along the irregular, picturesque and sometimes narrow streets that follow the curves of the original hilly terrain. The community takes it's name from the joining of two large hills via street grading that began in the late 1800's and continued through the early 1900's. The homes that line Jefferson Park have a clear view of downtown Richmond. Bordered on the south by Jefferson Avenue, on the north by Carrington and O Streets, on the east by 25th Street, and by Mosby on the west. Union Hill's history began early in the nineteenth century.
