In October of 2022, the city of Norfolk reached out regarding our neighborhood’s desire to install 4-way stop signs at Columbus Ave and LaValette Ave.
During our Civic League meeting in December, the idea was presented to the membership, and the membership voted in favor of installing the 4-way stop signs. At the end of February, the city installed the additional stop sign.
We appreciate the city and the Civic League working together to make this happen!

Our September Community Happy Hour at Elation Brewing was a fantastic success! CPRV neighbors enjoyed lively conversation, delicious pizza, and local brews, making new connections and celebrating a great local business.
On September 6th, the Colonial Place Riverview (CPRV) Civic League held its first-ever community yard sale, with over 27 residents participating. The event not only helped neighbors clear out their attics, but also raised much-needed funds for the civic league and sparked a welcome increase in membership.
