PortRVA is a brand new urban destination with 102 apartments and 3,000 square feet of commercial storefront space. This project has changed the look and feel of RichmondÂ’s Historic Manchester neighborhood.
The design of the building integrates the outdoors with a courtyard design that allows for maximum natural light to enter thru the expansive storefront style windows. With a private outdoor balcony included with most apartments, the ability to enjoy the outdoors and views from Manchester becomes part of your lifestyle.
This is not a west end apartment building accidentally dropped off in Manchester. This building fits what the neighborhood needs. A modern design, great location, and with price points that donÂ’t make you scratch your head. PortRVA makes perfect sense.

1/10Living in Richmond
Old Town Manchester occupies Richmond’s south bank of the James River, facing downtown across the water. Its historic streets and former industrial buildings reflect the neighborhood’s past, while converted warehouses, murals and newer development shape its present-day character. The riverfront is a defining feature: Manchester Floodwall Walk offers elevated views, and nearby Belle Isle and the James River Park System provide trails, rocky river scenery and outdoor recreation. Dining spots and coffee shops are scattered among the neighborhood’s historic blocks, with additional shopping, restaurants and nightlife across the river in downtown Richmond. The area’s compact street grid makes walking and biking practical for local trips; bridges connect it to downtown, and bus service and major roads offer other ways around the city. Old Town Manchester’s median rent is $1,534 per month, with a typical range of $1,131 to $3,250, based on 26 active listings.
