I lived in Richmond Hill until I married at age 22....In the fabulous 60's I went there when the rock band Dave Clark Five were appearing, I remember my older brother holding me and my twin up so we could get a glimpse of them.

What is interesting about the restoration of the RKO Keith's Richmond Hill's marquee was that they didn't realize it was all still back there when they were going to "recreate" it.
