Triangle Park: Gas Station to Greenspace
Triangle Park, located in Richmond’s Church Hill neighborhood, was once an abandoned gas station lot. Thanks to dedicated neighbors, it has become a thriving community space. The park began with an elm tree and two benches salvaged from the former Richmond Coliseum. A raised pollinator garden was constructed in 2023 in memory of a neighbor’s sister. Now encircled by native plant gardens, Friends of Triangle Park continues to maintain and enhance this central greenspace for neighbors and wildlife.
