South Hill Crossing

South Hill Crossing is an upscale housing development on the site of the former United Tobacco Warehouse, developed by Bill Lear and Jim Phelps.(1) The $10 million, 18-unit development consists of 2,000 to 3,000 sq. ft. residences with prices ranging from $250,000 to $500,000. The development is designed to closely mirror the existing, older building stock in the historic neighborhood.

Planning for South Hill Crossing dated back to 1998, when the South Hill neighborhood association successfully fought a plan for a 45-unit suburban-style apartment complex.(1)
