I think Richmond's city landlords have seen the light & realized that there are people who will pay an extra few hundred bucks for the hipness factor - I can't afford most places in Style, and I am totally a yuppie. I am, however, consoled that the influx of hipster-cred-yearning yuppies [er, self probably included] will make all those places way less hip.
The fan apartments really depress me, though - in the last 5 years, a few companies have been churning out "renovations" that amount to making the insides of all these old buildings look identical. A lot of those apartments are reasonably priced, but so sad.
