The 2014 RVA Magazine Readers Poll Enters Its Final Week–Vote Now!

by | Aug 11, 2014 | POLITICS

It’s been nearly two years since we last polled our readership about their favorite people, places, and things in our wonderful city. In recent months, we’ve seen growth and changes taking place around town that transform the cultural landscape in a lot of ways. It started to seem like our last poll was getting a bit out of date–and of course, we were also wondering about a whole bunch of things we forgot to ask you last time.

It’s been nearly two years since we last polled our readership about their favorite people, places, and things in our wonderful city. In recent months, we’ve seen growth and changes taking place around town that transform the cultural landscape in a lot of ways. It started to seem like our last poll was getting a bit out of date–and of course, we were also wondering about a whole bunch of things we forgot to ask you last time. Therefore, we came up with a whole new list of questions, which ended up being much longer than the last one was. We didn’t want to overwhelm you, so this is just the first half, which focuses on places to eat, drink, and shop around town. We’ll get into the music, art, and other cultural phenomena in Part Two, coming later this year. But for now, answer me these questions (twenty-)three, and tell us about all the places and things you love here in RVA! Poll ends at noon on August 29, so get your votes in now!
