Glenwood Farms redevelopment, Short Pump townhomes project on Henrico agenda
Henrico supervisors meet in regular session Tuesday at 7 p.m. Full agenda here.
On the agenda is the plan to redevelop the blighted Glenwood Farms community. Developers Spy Rock Real Estate and Crescent Development are planning a total of 950 residential units, with 555 apartments, 395 townhomes or condos, and an unspecified amount of commercial space to replace Glenwood Farms’ 294 apartments, some of which have been condemned and are unoccupied.
Also on the agenda is developers Robert Babcock and Lawrence Liesfeld’s plan for 32 four-story townhomes at 4600 Pouncey Tract Road in Short Pump. The 3.6-acre parcel northwest of Pouncey Tract’s intersection with Liesfeld Farm Drive was previously planned for office use to support the adjacent Bacova community.

The Henrico County Planning Commission meets Thursday at 7 p.m. Full agenda here.
On the agenda is Reynolds Development’s plan to reinvent parts of its Reynolds Crossing complex at the corner of West Broad Street and Forest Avenue. Increased density and height are in mind, as preliminary plans show about a half-dozen new buildings, most of which would be mixed-use or residential, to join the existing office, retail and Westin Richmond hotel building on the property.
Plans call for the new buildings to reach as high as 10 or 12 stories, with townhomes or low-rise condos in the center of the area. In total, the redevelopment could add over 1,200 dwelling units to the area.
The majority of the area targeted for development is currently covered by surface parking lots. The land in question is split across eight parcels with addresses running from 6603 to 6641 W. Broad St. The parcels are currently zoned for either business or industrial use.
120-acre data center project deferred in Powhatan

The Powhatan County Planning Commission deferred a vote last week on California-based developer Province Group’s proposal for a 1.5 million-square-foot data center project on 120 acres on the Powhatan-Chesterfield line.
Commissioners expressed concerns about water usage and other details about the project, which would rise near Anderson Highway’s intersection with Page Road. Province has the properties under contract.
The firm has requested a conditional use permit to allow the data center’s structures to exceed a 45-foot height ceiling. If approved, buildings would be able to rise to 75 feet. About 24 acres, or 20% of the site, would be dedicated open space, including about 9 acres of buffers, easements and conservation area, according to the rezoning application.
