Default Good Locations for Car Pictures

Hey,

I was wondering if any of you knew of any good places in Richmond or in Chesterfield to do a few shots as a photoshoot. Any areas with nice backgrounds like a view of the city, river, lakes, graffiti, abandoned buildings, anything across those lines.

This thread could help other people who want to take nice pictures of their car and want a nice background too.

Any new suggestions would be nice.

Thanks

Here is the Map Brandini has started:

Since this is now a sticky, I'm going to clean out this first page. Nobody get butt-hurt because your posts are gone. All posts here-out should be related to the spots.... No "hey is that XYZ's car, this is a good/bad/old idea, I like turtles" or general chit-chat that not contributory.

Thanks guys; now post pics and spots!
