Continuing the residential infill of Westchester Commons, an area homebuilder is looking to add hundreds of townhomes to the shopping center that’s transitioning to a mixed-use hub.
Lakeside-based StyleCraft Homes is seeking approval from Chesterfield County to build 210 townhomes on multiple pad sites within the nearly 800-acre commercial development at Midlothian Turnpike and Route 288.
The four-story townhomes would fill the vacant sites around the center’s Panera Bread, Bank of America, Gold’s Gym and Plaza Azteca locations. The sites total just over 13 acres.
Called Westchester Towns, the townhomes would continue the residential infill that started in recent years with The Vue at Westchester Commons, a 236-unit apartment complex overlooking 288 that was developed by George Emerson and Phil Roper. Emerson had previously collaborated with Casey Sowers on the project.
The Richmond-based missionary group is seeking a permit for two five-story buildings that would fill a surface parking lot and replace an office building.

A former deputy chief administrator for the City of Richmond is representing the team behind a proposal for a five-story building off a stretch of Chamberlayne Avenue that’s been attracting new investment in recent years.
Doug Dunlap, who served as the city’s director of housing, community and development before leaving City Hall in March 2020, is applying for a rezoning on behalf of a property owner that wants to develop a mixed-use building with 52 apartments at 711 Dawn St.
The half-acre site, at the corner of Tazewell Avenue just north of where it branches off from Chamberlayne, is across from Tabol Brewing, which opened its doors in 2019 as part of Chamberlayne Industrial Park.

A Henrico-based firm wants to put up a hotel next to Short Pump Town Center as local hoteliers continue to bet on an industry rebound.
Kalyan Hospitality submitted plans to Henrico County last week for a 9-story, 130-room hotel at 11768 W. Broad St.
The undeveloped, 1.7-acre parcel sits between Short Pump Town Center and VCU Health’s Neuroscience, Orthopaedic and Wellness Center.
Kalyan owner Nick Patel said they don’t have a brand identified yet for the hotel and will announce more information once they get approvals from the county.
