Richmond’s historic Shockoe Slip neighborhood is a colorful and lively district overlooking the James River. Filled with brick buildings dating back well over a century, the vintage aesthetic is complemented by lush trees shading the sidewalks and specialty storefronts like Antique Boutique and Fountain Bookstore along Cary Street. Sockoe Slip has long been a major hub for business in Richmond (plus the Virginia State Capitol is only a block away), but the community lives by a “work hard, play hard” attitude, with dining, entertainment, and nightlife making it a great after-hours destination as well.
Catch a concert at Canal Club, enjoy a stellar meal at Bistro Babette or Citizen, hit the dancefloor at KAI, or just relax with a cold one at 7 Hills Brewing Company.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
