Diamond District’s First Vertical Building Breaks Ground | Richmond News

Construction has officially begun on the first vertical building in the ambitious Diamond District development — a six-story apartment complex called Dōma with 276 units, alongside a new public park between the apartments and the ballpark, both slated for completion in early 2028. Despite past delays tied to stadium demolition and leadership changes, Thalhimer Realty Partners’ local presence has kept the project moving forward. The $80 million Dōma will offer market-rate apartments, commercial space, a rooftop terrace, and shared parking, while also training local residents for construction jobs. The project’s success promises major tax revenue to repay ballpark and infrastructure bonds. Phase one also includes an office building, hotel, and retail, with a local artist’s sculpture set to anchor the park — transforming underused land into a vibrant, mixed-use neighborhood.
