RICHMOND VIRGINIA
Bellevue Neighborhood
An early-20th Century “streetcar suburb”
Bellevue developed as a number of subdivisions - primarily in the 1920s and ‘30s -just a short commute north of downtown Richmond (click the History link to learn more). Today it is a vibrant, walkable urban neighborhood of around 1,200 architecturally-rich homes and maturely-landscaped yards, with a sprinkling of apartments. Two commercial districts featuring locally-owned businesses provide multiple destinations for dining, shopping and services.
