Our New Historic Jackson Website Is Live!
If you are on this page, you’ve probably noticed that the Historic Jackson Ward Association has a brand new website that you can view not only on your computer screen, but just as clearly on your tablet or phone whether you use a PC, Mac or Android. In June of 2018, HJWA hired a brilliant, young web designer, Matthew Jones of Peace of Mind Designs, to assist us in the process of converting our website to a more modern, more easily accessible site. For the next eight months, the HJWA Website Committee comprised of Janis Allen, Donna Alleyne, and Vicki Mollenauer worked together diligently with Matt to ensure that the excellent content of our original site was not lost in the migration to the new one. Don’t worry; the new site still contains all of the pictures we’ve posted over the years, the newsletters published, links to important HJWA documents, links to restaurants in our neighborhood, HJWA meeting dates/times, FAQ’s, a simple way to pay membership dues online, and our contact information. But it also has some amazing new features such as a new logo, an incredible video of Historic Jackson Ward, a calendar of events, our FB newsfeed, a subscribe button to make it easy to sign up for HJWA emails, a stronger search feature to make it easy to find what you’re looking for and much more. So, take a look around and let us know what you think!

An Urban Experience
Nestled downtown in one of American’s oldest and most historic cities, The Historic Jackson Ward offers a truly unique urban experience. Step out the doors of an early 1800’s home and onto paver sidewalks that bleed into a modern world. Shadowed by high-rises, yet illuminated by urban lights, ours is a world of the senses. Listen to the raw sounds that echo down our alleys as bands prepare for their next big gig or listen as the birds chirp amongst the well-established trees that line our city blocks. Peer into one of the many art galleries along the Broad Street Corridor or relax at one of the restaurants or coffee houses.
About the Association
The Historic Jackson Ward Association represents the residents located in the boundaries outlined in the HJWA Bylaws (approved on 2/21/06).”The boundaries of the neighborhood represented by the Association shall be from the CSX tracks north of I-95 to the north, the north side of Broad Street to the south, 3rd Street to the east, and Belvidere Street to the west, within the boundaries of the City of Richmond, Virginia.” The Association was started in the 1980’s and has been very active building relationships with local law enforcement, city officials, and VCU officials.
The Historic Jackson Ward Association monthly business meetings are held the third Tuesday of every other month at 6:00 PM at the UNOS building, which is located at the corner of 2nd Street and Clay Street. All are welcome! Membership dues are $15.00 for individuals and $25.00 for businesses, but you do not have to be a member to attend meetings. So, come join us and see what’s happening in Jackson Ward! If you have any questions, please email us at hjwassociation@gmail.com
