This Multiple Property Documentation (MPD) Form facilitates the nomination to the registers of the Streetcar Suburbs in Northside neighborhoods in the city of Richmond. The geographical area known as the Northside in Richmond is bounded roughly by the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad line on the east, the 1867 city boundary on the south, the Seaboard Airline Railway on the west, and the 1914 corporate limit on the north. This area was originally within Henrico County.
Many properties listed in the registers are private dwellings and are not open to the public, however many are visible from the public right-of-way. Please be respectful of owner privacy.
