Henrico Theatre, located in Highland Springs, originally opened as a movie palace on April 25, 1938. Tickets cost $0.25 for adults and $0.10 for children. Designed by architect Edward F. Sinnott, the structure is a unique example of art deco architecture in the county and was built to be the most modern and technologically advanced theatre in the Richmond area for the time. In 1998, Henrico County purchased the property from the Horne family, owners and operators from 1976 to 1998. The theatre was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005 and reopened in 2007 after renovation.

Located at Stony Run Drive and Williamsburg Road in Richmond’s East End, this 40 acre park is home to the city’s only BMX race track, which serves as the home track for Richmond BMX, an affiliate of the National Bicycle League. A park that draws diverse activities, it is also a favorite of disc golf fans (much like Bryan Park) for its 18-hole disc golf course. In addition, the park’s horse shoe pits are the site of regular activity and many tournaments. The Gillies Creek Park Foundation is working with the City of Richmond on future plans to develop the park to connect a series of new and existing parks in an unprecedented urban greenway that will link Richmond neighborhoods to the nearby riverfront, Tobacco Row, the Virginia Capital Trail and the restored canal.

Evergreen Cemetery is a historic African-American cemetery, created in 1891 and located in the East End of Richmond. It is the resting place for many of Richmond’s African-American leaders of the 19th and 20th centuries, including Maggie L. Walker, John Mitchell, Jr, and Rev. J. Andrew Bowler. There are an estimated 10,000 plots in Evergreen. Enrichmond Foundation acquired the cemetery in May 2017 and, in partnership with Virginia Outdoors Foundation, will place it under a conservation easement to protect it from future development. In addition to protecting the land, Enrichmond will enlist volunteer, professional, and nonprofit assistance to return Evergreen to an accessible state. Major efforts over the next several years will include: clearing overgrowth and refuse, maintaining cleared areas, mapping gravesites, recording grave information, increasing visitor safety, and making the cemetery and its records available to families of those interred. Enrichmond is dedicated to making Evergreen’s sacred grounds public and accessible to all – most especially to family members of those interred. The acquisition also represents Enrichmond’s first step in bringing the “Four Cemeteries of Evergreen” under one coordinated restoration effort.
