In Chicago and Richmond (Va.), the "Yards" notion surfaces

The "Yards" thing, it's going around. First in Chicago, then in Richmond, Va.

Another ambitious mixed-use plan w/"Yards" + big promises.

From Richmond Business Sense, 2/14/19, Updated: Local developer proposes Coliseum redevelopment alternative dubbed ‘Navy Hill Yards’:

Dubbed Navy Hill Yards, Bilder’s project would call for rehabbing the recently shuttered Coliseum and adding onto the exterior with a new structure that would encircle it with residential, hotel or office uses. The proposal cites the Barclays Center in New York City as an example.
