A Historic Neighborhood.
Preserving the past.
Securing our future.
Historic Old Southwest, just a few minutes walk from Downtown Roanoke, is a living celebration of history, architecture, and the “urban pioneer” spirit.
Our vision is to live in a community where people care about their neighbors, participate in neighborhood life, and are open to building a future together that makes Old Southwest the most desired community in the Roanoke Valley in which to live, work, and play.
