"The caption says unidentified but that roundabout used to be at Hull and Belt. Hull is going right to left and Belt is the road going into the distance. Southside Plaza is at the upper left of the roundabout. Midlothian Turnpike is in the distance." from cadeho at RCW

Southside Plaza Shopping Center... Probably on a Sunday when the Blue Laws prevented Sunday opening.... Only the Standard Drug store was open... The Big screen in the back ground was the drive in theater may still be open. The traffic circle was known as "McGuire Circle"

The cars are in front of the Peoples Service Drug Store that was in the center. Standard Drug wasn't a tenant. Giant Food is on the left end of the shopping center, and Sears was at the other end, with JC Penney right around the middle.

Southside Plaza is bigger than you think!!!

Running parallel to the Belt Boulevard and just to the left of the water tower is the Atlantic Coast Line spur track from "Shops" Yard in south Richmond, meeting up with the main lines at Meadow towards the top of the photo.
