the lost neighborhood of Navy Hill

The VCU Library’s Special Collection’s set of pages for Navy Hill is the only online resource that is readily available on this disappeared slice of Richmond:

If you are familiar with the history of Richmond, Virginia, you may be well acquainted with its historic neighborhoods, including Church Hill, Jackson Ward, and the Fan District. But are you familiar with Navy Hill? The Navy Hill section in the city of Richmond was located between 3rd and 10th Streets (within the boudaries of Jackson Ward) and ran just north of Leigh Street all the way to Shockoe Cemetery. Largely demolished in the 1960s, Navy Hill was once a vast and eclectic collection of houses, schools, businesses, and churches.
