Tree Hill Farm’s Heritage Clash | Richmond News

A long-dormant $200 million development on Virginia’s historic Tree Hill Farm is roaring back to life—this time with a new developer, Brookfield Residential, set to begin construction next summer. Originally approved in 2007, the project includes 500 homes, restored historic buildings, and river access—but the real firestorm centers on a six-and-a-half-acre Native American heritage site honoring Chief Powhatan. Local tribes say it’s tokenistic and insufficient, sparking a breakdown in talks and igniting a fierce debate over honoring sacred land versus urban growth. With construction slated to begin, the tribes are pushing for deeper recognition, while Brookfield insists it’s honoring the original plan. The future of the site—and the land’s legacy—hangs in the balance. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
