Innsbrook is a mixed-use corporate center in Central Virginia that was founded in 1979 by local developer Sidney Gunst on property owned by David Arenstein and Henry Stern. Located approximately 13 miles northwest of RichmondâÂÂs central business district at the confluence of I-64 and I-295, the development is the regionâÂÂs second largest employment center. Currently it encompasses over seven million square feet of office space, representing over 400 companies and 22,000 employees. The development includes approximately 1000 residential units and 100,000 sq ft of retail and 12 hotels.
The Innsbrook Owners Association (IOA) and its board of directors, is a non-profit corporation that upholds a comprehensive set of restrictive covenants that were established to preserve the quality and character of the development. The IOA actively oversees issues such as security, landscaping, lakes, trails, and stormwater management, and coordinates with the county on roads and utilities. The IOA Architectural Review Committee exercises oversight and approval of design plans prior to submission to the county in accordance with InnsbrookâÂÂs design guidelines.
