January & March 2022: Photo Gallery Updates

Long time, no update everyone! I’m still alive and still very much interested in watching new buildings grow Downtown. I’ve got a bit more time on my hands lately and I have vowed to start back with some periodic Gallery updates. There is so much construction occurring around the metro area and I want to ensure I document it.

The biggest recent change to the site is the update to the Gallery module. The former Gallery module is no longer being updated and it was only a matter of time before it stopped working. In February 2022, I migrated 19,000+ photos over to the new Piwigo Gallery module. Please use this link to see all new content going forward.

This Gallery update highlights the following projects:

  • VCU Medical Center – Outpatient Facility
  • VCU Childrens Hospital Expansion
  • New General Assembly Building
  • New State Parking Deck on Broad
  • The Current
  • South Falls I
  • McRae & Lacy Townhomes
  • Riverview Apartments
  • Scott’s Addition Projects (Multiple)
  • Skyline from Libby Hill, Grace Street Overlook
