Where & When

804RVA: That Coworking Place 1657 W Broad
Saturday, September 21, 12 noon


What are we photographing?[edit]

The goal is to take pictures of National Register of Historic Places listings in Richmond, Virginia. A list of places to photograph will be supplied, but here are some examples (look for red icons).

Looks like they all have images already. What's going to be the added value of our photographs? dbabbitt (talk) 21:53, 25 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
We'll be taking photos of places that are lacking images in their wiki entries. There are about a dozen sites all fairly close together in the City of Richmond. Fionaussie 06:06, 5 September 2013 9UTC)

  • Riyuky (talk) 21:18, 24 August 2013 (UTC) ; I live in Charlottesville so if I'm feel particularly tired and/or lazy and/or something else comes up for that weekend the drive might dissuade me from making it but I'm interested.[reply]
