James River Correctional Center

James River Correctional Center was an American medium-security state-run correctional facility in Goochland County near Crozier, Virginia. Opened in 1896, it was the oldest prison in Virginia. The correctional center housed approximately 450 male prisoners and employed 160 staff. The facility was closed effective April 1, 2011, due to a proposed state budget cut of $10.9 million for the following fiscal year.
