Fun fact about Richmond...
Do you know what was on the site where River Rock Casino is now?
A public market, Bridgepoint Market, was built at the time Granville Island and the Westminster Quay were gaining in popularity. It opened on May 25, 1989, but didn't last long. It was eventually demolished and the River Rock Casino Resort was built in its stead, opening in June 2004, according to the Friends of the Richmond Archives.
