A commercial broker and architect teamed up to purchase some land from RRHA to develop a series of townhomes on VCU’s southern border in the Randolph neighborhood. After much negotiation with the neighborhood, the Tribeca Brownstones were created to provide a more upscale and urban feel to the block. Prior to the collapse of the market in 2008, 6 of 8 townhomes were sold to a mix of parents as a far superior housing option for students and to a young professional crowd.
Open design, flexible spaces, larger kitchens, contemporary finishes and engaging exteriors, all parts of a Johannas Design signature project, drove the aesthetic of the development and will shape the block’s additional phases over time.
