Utility Area Cleanup
This morning a group of volunteers worked to clean invasive plants, brush, debris, and litter from a ‘utility area’ behind Holly Street Playground.
The group consisted of neighbors Stephenie Harrington, Jimmy Blackford, Chris Milk, and some VCU students organized by coordinator Nicole Patterson.
Afterwords, they enjoyed a delicious lunch from Peddler on Pine.
They found hundreds of bottles and cans going back 20 years+ by the labels. They also found a Viewfinder, toy trucks, school chair seats, and a tire.

Solar Success
Congratulations to Phaedra and Eric for hosting a great Solar Open House this afternoon as part of the Richmond Solar Co-op. Over thirty people came to check out their recent large residential installation. More rooftop solar in the neighborhood will lead to a cleaner, more resilient neighborhood grid and is certainly a reason for celebration.
By the way, this morning the Tesla dealership out on West Broad featured a presentation on their home energy plans and the latest iteration of their Powerwall energy storage product.

Holly Street Playground and Ravine
In response to recent concerns, it look like Holly Street Playground area will be receiving more attention. Incoming Oregon Hill Neigborhood Association (OHNA) President Todd Woodson has requested a structural assessment from the City on the embankment that supports the playground. He is interested in the possibility of making this area, which is sort of an extension of S. Cherry St, more of a public walking trail than just a utility alley. Other neighbors have suggestions that include repaving the basketball court and establishing a tool lending program. These ideas will probably be discussed at the upcoming OHNA meeting next Tuesday.
This is the 1867 Michie Map showing the ravine that was filled in to make Holly Street playground. Thanks to neighbor Charles Pool for this…
