While a new apartment building goes up on the north end of the neighborhood on W.Cary, the south end of the neighborhood is also picking up in bustle as new homes are constructed.

Stop Sign Update
From a Holly Street neighbor:
After contacting the police about so many vehicles running the stop sign at Oregon Hill Parkway and Pine St, they sent out an engineer to look at it. They got back to me today with a summary:
The RPD traffic division has contacted the Department of Public Works regarding the traffic issues you brought to our attention. Together, they have devised the following plan of action:
– Oregon Hill Pkwy and Pine St
o DPW plans to place a stop bar and improve the placement of the stop sign.
– Holly and Pine
o DPW will place a stop ahead sign and replace the stop sign for the eastbound movement

Dry Overlook Evening
Photo from yesterday evening. The river is swollen but like yesterday, no rain is in the forecast for today.
People Watching
Besides this wedding party, there were lots of great people-watching opportunities yesterday afternoon. Plenty of people were enjoying the RVA PRideFest on Brown’s Island and/or headed down to Tredegar for some beer drinking. The river itself remains high and too dangerous for swimming.
Ready Player One Reading Tomorrow
Pine Street neighbor Cristina Domínguez Ramírez announced,
“Hurricane or not I am day #73 of 100 Days RVA Reads. Come visit me tomorrow morning at the Oregon Hill Gazebo by the Overlook at 10:15 am to talk about Ready Player One by Ernest Cline.”
Evening
Before Hurricane Florence’s rain…
Clouds
This evening produced some fantastic clouds on the horizon. Rain is forecast for tomorrow afternoon.

Editor’s note: Speaking of views, you may notice that I have changed the theme on this website. I took down advertisements since no one was paying me regularly. I am going to try to re-work things over the summer and maybe add some new features. Please get in touch if you are an Oregon Hill resident who knows a bit about WordPress and would like to help. Just please be committed…I have had people in the past who have not lasted long at all. This site could certainly generate some good part-time income and benefits for the right person.)
