Luxury Housing vs. Riverfront Parks

Luxury Housing vs. Riverfront Parks

Published 15 hours ago
Description

Newport News faces a heated debate over turning a beloved waterfront into luxury housing, sparking outrage from residents who’ve long pushed for it to stay as a public park — a dream that includes new trails and the demolition of old jail buildings. Meanwhile, Virginia Beach is weighing whether to use tourism dollars to bail out Atlantic Park’s debt, while local business owners question why big projects get breaks when their own businesses suffer. And in Suffolk, a driver got a speeding ticket in a work zone they say had poor signage — and now they’re accusing the city of running an entrapment scam, with fines routed to a Baltimore company.
