welcome TO Riverdale
Located in Roanoke, Virginia, along the Roanoke River Greenway and at the base of Mill Mountain, Riverdale is a dynamic and evolving community with a rich history and a bold vision for the future. Originally an industrial hub that opened its doors in 1917, Riverdale spans 125 acres of prime land that had fallen into disuse but is now being reimagined as a vibrant mixed-use development that blends creativity, commerce, and community.
At Riverdale, we like to say that there’s a surprise around every corner. We are hard at work transforming this historic site into a diverse, creative, innovative community that will include light industrial, commercial, office, retail, residential, and dining spaces. Our vision is to create a true community hub—a place where local culture, innovation, art and recreation come together. In that spirit of transformation, the City of Roanoke has created a unique zoning opportunity called “Urban Center” which allows for a wide spectrum of development. Currently offering spaces ranging from 700 square feet to 30,000 square feet, Riverdale offers unique opportunities for entrepreneurs, artists, and businesses to make their mark.
Whether you're seeking a studio, office space, a retail storefront, or light industrial, Riverdale offers the flexibility for those with a vision to transform spaces and make an impact. This is where bold ideas meet opportunity, and where the past meets the future, creating a space for businesses, artists, and innovators to flourish.
