The Virginia Department of Historic Resources has added the Woodland Heights neighborhood of South Richmond to the Virginia Landmarks Register.
Woodland Heights was among 29 new sites approved by the department after presentations last week.
Woodland Heights is an approximately 80-square-block area -- bounded roughly by the river on the north, West 24th Street on the east, West 34th Street on the west and Bainbridge Street and Forest Hill Avenue on the south -- that is one of the oldest streetcar suburbs in Richmond.
Woodland Heights also has an application pending for designation as a federal landmark, a process that is expected to produce a decision in the coming months.
