Dancing Point, Archaeological site on James River in Charles City County, Virginia.
Located on the north bank of the James River, Dancing Point stretches across 146 acres of land at the meeting point of James and Chickahominy Rivers.
The site contains evidence of prehistoric Native American settlements from the Archaic and Woodland periods, along with remains of Euro-American settlements from the 1600s and 1700s.
The property features a 1970s Postmodern design by architect Thomas Church, incorporating minimal design elements and natural landscapes with river perspectives.
The National Register of Historic Places listing from April 2016 provides protection and recognition for both the archaeological resources and architectural elements.
Dancing Point represents Thomas Church's sole surviving architectural commission in Virginia, combining a Robert W. Stewart-designed house with landscape integration.
