THE MANCHESTER DISTRICT

Deep rooted history in the city’s hottest place to live  

Located on the fall line of the James River, Manchester is one of the city’s most historic – and most booming – neighborhoods. This area is home to the Richmond Slave Trail, a walking trail that chronicles the experience of enslaved Africans. Today, amidst the historic sites, you’ll find new river-view apartments and condos popping up constantly. Among the attractions here: Hatch Local, a multi-vendor food hall/bar/market; Legend Brewing, Richmond’s original craft brewer; Croaker’s Spot, one of the most amazing soul food spots on the East Coast; and the Manchester Climbing Wall, where rock climbers are treated to an incredible view of the city.
