St. James is a community on 30th street, where flowers bloom and the breeze brings in salt from the river. Where the sidewalk ends and the street meets the water, the grounds come alive with residents and pets; cooking, telling jokes, and enjoying the evening air. Amongst a landscape dotted with a shipyard and buildings of a bygone era, where the slow drone of ships drift in from the water, you will find an oasis of sun, flowers, and the cool poetry of the river. St. James is not a community you are likely to forget. Built in 1943, the buildings are invested with style and craftsmanship. The apartments at St. James are quaint; two story buildings, featuring hardwood floors and colonial moldings. The Peninsula Community Award Winning grounds are just beautiful. St. James also has a pool overlooking the James River, a private beach, and courtyard simply overflowing with flowers. There is a large Laundry facility with large dryers and a small lending library inside the building, also outside lines for air drying. St. James is serviced by a professional, 24 hour, on call maintenance staff. Pets are welcome with 25lbs weight limit ($200 pet deposit with $100 refundable).
