We just moved to Richmond and for the first time drove to Downtown Richmond where all the historic buildings are near Kaiser. Why is it a ghost town? Richmond has a population of over 100,000 people and yet it feels like no man’s land in some areas. Is the city doing anything to revive the downtown area? I spoke to a few neighbors who’ve been here for decades and they gave me rundown about what Mcdonald Ave used to be like. Do y’all see anything happening in the near future?
