From the Henrico Citizen:

Relief may be coming soon for a longtime Northern Henrico eyesore.

Westminster Canterbury Richmond is proposing a 10-acre expansion of its retirement community between Dumbarton Road and Brook Road adjacent to I-95. The expansion would occur on a portion of the former site of the Azalea Mall, which has been vacant for several decades. Westminster Canterbury bought the 10-acre section of the site in 2018.

Plans call for the addition of 125 new independent living units – 93 of them coming from five new buildings on the new acreage and the rest as part of a multi-level addition to an existing building on the current site. WCR also is proposing to build a new multi-level parking deck and a new aquatic and athletic facility as part of the project. The community currently has 498 independent living units and a total of 820 units in all.
