Planned as a grand avenue in the late 19th century, Monument Avenue is a natural extention of Franklin Street where the “movers and shakers” of Richmond lived in the mid and late 19th century. It has always had the grandest of the grand houses in Richmond. Houses designed by the best architects of their day, among them William Lawrence Bottomley, John Russell Pope, D. Wiley Anderson, Carl Lindner and W. Duncan Lee. Once many of these grand houses suffered from neglect, but today they enjoy a new appreciation by a growing number of homeowners.
