WELCOME

Downtown Petersburg Incorporated (DPI) and its various committees are working to make Petersburg an exciting place to invest in, see, shop, and dine as well as live and work.  We invite you to explore our site and then come and enjoy our historic downtown for a few hours, a few days or longer. 


Petersburg is a historic area
conveniently located off I-95 and I-85;
near I-295 and I-64.  We are approximately
1 hour from Williamsburg and the
Historic Triangle, 20 minutes from
Richmond, 2 1/2 hours from
Washington D.C. and 2 hours from
Charlottesville.   



A variety of events throughout the year attract tourists as well as old friends to our historic areas.  Visitors enjoy our rich history and culture and a wide variety of new shops and restaurants in beautiful renovated  historic buildings.  Investors enjoy great opportunities and returns.
