The Diamond Mixed Use Development / The Diamond District - City of Richmond

The City of Richmond is seeking to redevelop 67.57 acres of under-developed, publicly-owned property along the I-95 east coast corridor into a mixed-use, mixed-income entertainment destination. The city has been preparing for a redevelopment of this strategic site for a number of years and, in the process, has relocated city functions, demolished buildings, and remediated the site with the exception of the baseball stadium and the Arthur Ashe Junior Athletic Center. Site has potential to hold 4,000 apartments, 500,000 square feet of retail, 375,000 square feet of office space and a 250-room hotel. As of July 2023, the city has selected a developer and the City Council approved the project. This project is currently being pushed through zoning by the city. A timeline for construction and phasing has not yet been determined. The lead developer RVA Diamond Partners is a partnership of Republic, Loop Capital, Thalhimer Realty Group, Pennrose, NixDev, Southside Community Development, Capstone, M Companies, and JMI Sports
