You go get in line. you get to the front, one hour later, to explain what you need and get a form to fill out. After you step aside and fill it out.... you get back in the same line. And you wait another hour to get a number. Then you wait for a window to call you. When I was there, 2 of the 6 windows were manned. It took an insane amount of time to get a copy of my marriage license. The irony is, I needed the marriage license so my wife could go to DMV to go through purgatory to get a REAL ID. There has got to be an easier way.

The tennis court also has a mural there dedicated to the great tennis player from Richmond himself Arthur Ashe the mural wall can also be used as a hitting wall for solo tennis practice.

Whenever visitors come to see us from other states, we always take them on a drive down this iconic Avenue! Monument Avenue is unique and beautifully maintained. The various houses along the drive are well kept and architecturally appealing. From Colonial, to Spanish, to English Tudor, and other styles, you will enjoy seeing these lovely Southern homes. In the spring, the pear trees, crape myrtles, dogwoods and other trees burst into bloom leaving a spectacular site among the flowers that line the median. I love the areas where there is some old cobblestones preserved from bygone days. The monuments are a testament to our Virginia history. While we take our drive, we like to have the passengers google the various statues and brush up on the various historic and modern figures, learn about their background, catch a glimpse of the past and really get a sense of our place in the present. If you're a history buff, love buildings or scenic views, a leisurely drive down this landmark avenue is a Richmond treat!

Monument Avenue is worth a drive or walk down if you're in the area. Lined with trees, churches,…read moreand old architecture, it is a beautiful part of town. As a bit of a Civil War history buff, I was disappointed that the statues do not have much educational information to explain the lives of the people they depict. It's an educational opportunity wasted to not put them into context. It is also difficult to appreciate the sculptors' work on such a busy street, but that actually goes to show that the original intent of the Avenue has succeeded. After the death of General Robert E. Lee in 1870, land owned by Otway C. Allen was chosen as the future site of a Lee memorial statue and a larger avenue of monuments dedicated to famous Confederate Virginians, Including J.E.B. Stuart, Stonewall Jackson, and Jefferson Davis. (Fun fact: Interestingly, Lee explicitly stated before his death that he did not wish any statues to be erected in his honor, nor any symbols of the Confederacy to be kept and displayed.) Oceanographer Matthew Maury and tennis player Arthur Ashe later joined the Avenue in 1929 and 1996. The City of Richmond and developers hoped such a street, scenically lined by trees and flowers, would attract wealthy Richmonders to the area and raise property values. A century later the Avenue still attracts home buyers, tourists, and protesters alike as a major landmark.
