To: I want to know

I'll have to ask her. I didn't know there was a housing development going right there. That's not good for her neighborhood if so; she lives only a block and a half or so off Timberlake and a development will make the insane traffic on Timberlake even worse.

Actually I grew up in Amherst. When I moved back to Lynchburg in '90 after a stint outside DC I lived in Walden Pond apartments off Lakeside (and worked at a computer reseller along US 221 near Graves Mill Road), then moved down here to Richmond, South Carolina, and back to Richmond. I'm still amazed at all the growth along the Wards Road/Candler's Mountain Road corridor and around the LU area--and even more amazed that after talking about it for twenty-five years, they've FINALLY bypassed Madison Heights on US 29 North!

But with all due respect to Rev. Falwell and what he's done, it's not "Liberty Mountain." It's Candler's Mountain, and always will be. :)

I remember Walden Pond Apts. off Lakeside. I'm forgetting a lot of the names and you guys are jarring some memories. My daughter was the manager of the restaurant on the corner near the women's college and I'm trying to recall the name of both the reataurant and the college. Old age ain't fun.
