The distinctive red brick building has been completely renovated to accommodate attractive luxury warehouse apartments. A number of different floorplans offer amazing Richmond views, distinctive architectural elements, modern appliances and amenities, and more. The Virginia Capital Trail bike path is just across the street, as is the popular James River Park System, full of trails and opportunities for whitewater adventures. There are a host of unique restaurants and cafes within walking distance, as well as a range of galleries and boutiques. From Shockoe Slip to Shockoe Bottom, and along the length of the James River Park, a year-long calendar of cultural and musical events will fill your afternoons and evenings.
