Richmond, Va. is the city I discovered as almost an afterthought when I came to the University of Richmond. Since then I've realized that the city is the main event and life in the West End is pristine and predictable.
My purpose for keeping this blog is twofold: 1. To recount my observations at an internship with Partnership for Smarter Growth (PSG) so that I can later analyze my reflections.
2. To share my thoughts (both educated and anecdotal) about the life of someone working long hours to advocate smarter growth while commuting in from the (albeit older) suburbs of the Richmond West End.
