Brown's Island provides one of the best views of the city by far when you get across the bridge and climb the stairs (or take the longer route that is dog friendly). It was a little disappointing how little was actually on the island when you get all the way across the bridge, it pretty much just serves as a link between mainland and mayo bridge. One thing I would like to see more of over there are porta potty's so you're not sprinting back across Potterfield bridge to pee!

We had a great visit to Browns Island and the Canals. We also walked over to the James River and the bridge that crosses over. The historic bridge when General Lee left Richmond is a reminder if the storied past. If we forget our mistakes of the past, we are destined to repeat them. God bless America 🇺🇸.

I absolutely love this spot. My favorite chill spot. I go to walk and listen to nature. Have a Soul Ice (water ice) and tacos in the summer. And go on a relaxing hike in the winter breeze. The new staues are AMAZING! We have come so far and have so far to go.

Great spot for all the happenings in Richmond. The folk festival and all kinds of other gatherings. Awesome little location for events. Can't beat the views of the river while having a good time, that's what Richmond is all about!

Concert venue, could use a big screen Tron to bring it into the 21st century. High priced beers, water, Food – what you expect but really? Lawn seating only.

Beautiful spot! Walked along a long bridge to get to it. Great place to sup or kayak. Lots of spots people were swimming! Very clean area with great views!
