East Brook: US-460 - US-29

About location

Few places in central Virginia have a history as closely tied to tobacco trading and rail transport as Lynchburg; East Brook lies on the city’s eastern approach. East Brook follows the US Route 460 corridor, a principal road through this wooded, low-density edge of the urban area. Lynchburg rises above the James River, where it developed into an important tobacco market and railroad centre during the nineteenth century. Its older districts retain brick commercial and industrial architecture associated with that era, while the outer neighbourhoods give way quickly to wooded slopes and major road links. East Brook marks this transition between the city’s wider transport network and the rolling terrain of Virginia’s Piedmont.
