| Richmond Hill rh.gif) Richmond Hill is a town in York Region north
of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The Town of Richmond Hill started out as a small settlement
located partially in the Township of Vaughan and partially in the Township of Markham. The
Town's development was closely linked with the development of Yonge Street, which was
planned primarily as a military road by John Graves Simcoe, the first Lieutenant-Governor
of the Province of Upper Canada. The Town was officially incorporated on June 18, 1872 as
a village.
Richmond Hill has 166 parks, mostly small urban parks and
544 hectares of undeveloped natural area for recreation. The largest such park is Richmond
Green Sports Centre & Park, which includes baseball diamonds, a skating rink, a 300
person amphitheatre and a skateboard park. The Richmond Hill Heritage Centre serves as a
museum of the town's history. It also runs a variety of programmes related to the town's
history.
Southern Richmond Hill is home to the industrial region
housing and most of the town's hotels, as well as the main commercial area of the town's
Chinese community. The northern part of town is considered to be Old Richmond Hill as it
is a historical area. Central Richmond Hill is a very commercial area, housing multiple
malls, plazas and entertainment buildings, such as theatres and restaurants. The northern
most part of the town is mostly farmland, though it is being developed.
