Hugging the shores of the James River, Shockoe Bottom mixes classic architecture with modern conveniences and a spirited energy. Stately brownstones house new businesses, while residents inhabit modern lofts previously used as industrial warehouses. Shockoe Bottom rentals also include luxury apartments in modern buildings and longstanding townhomes.

Aside from a bustling retail and restaurant industry, Shockoe Bottom boasts spectacular views.
