Richmond’s best-kept secret
Phrases like “hidden gem” and “tucked away” get thrown around a lot. But Stony Point, just 9 miles from Downtown Richmond, Virginia, is both of those things. “Stony Point is a little bit concealed,” says Alyssa Black, former Crossroads Records employee – a store in Stony Point Fashion Park. “Since most of it is enclosed by Chippenham Parkway, it’s more of a destination neighborhood. It’s not the kind of place you’d just pass by while driving.” The neighborhood’s Larus Park spans over 100 acres – and many Richmond residents don’t even know it’s there. But the primary destinations here are Stony Point Fashion Park, a mall selling local and luxury, and the medical facilities across from it.

Stony Point Fashion Park
Stony Point Fashion Park is the neighborhood’s centerpiece. It features high-end retailers, like Brooks Brothers and Tiffany and Co., as well as well-known dining options, like P.F. Chang’s. But where Stony Point shines is with its local retailers. “It’s a good community of small business owners trying to stay afloat,” Black says. “The mall is more of a destination – it’s not something you’d just pass by. Even though there are so many great stores, a lot of people just forget it’s there.” Some RVA exclusives include Sisters Boutique, a clothing store owned by three sisters and Lyra’s Natural Kitchen, which serves healthy meals with fresh ingredients. Locals can take advantage of the mall’s outdoor spaces, like cornhole boards and benches amid well-maintained landscaping and potted plants. Nearby Stony Point Shopping Centre has a Trader Joe’s and Good Foods, a locally-owned health foods store. Or, to eat out, residents can go to Southbound, a Richmond staple serving southern cuisine, and head to Gelati Celesti next door for dessert.

Wooded walking trails at Larus Park
Larus Park is virtually unknown by Richmond locals. Chippenham Turnpike splits this 106-acre park, and on the eastern edge, visitors can hear passing cars. But locals love the seclusion. Visitors rarely see more than one other hiker on wooded trails, and a creek runs through. Stony Point borders the James River; however, there aren’t any direct access points or boat launches in the neighborhood. Those who live on Cherokee Road might have a waterfront property, but others will need to travel to nearby Huguenot Flatwater or Pony Pasture to kayak, fish or swim. “It’s definitely not a ‘river neighborhood’ like other areas can be,” Black says. “But you’re really close to it, so if you’re into that kind of thing – white water rafting, kayaking – it’s a short drive to the James.”
Larus Park in Stony Point offers locals a place to unwind in acres of wooded trails.
