[Illustration: _Richmond’s Civic Center (The Mosque)_]
On the right is one of the many municipal parks, most of which are
located outside the heavily built-up part of the city. Looking through
the park you can see Richmond’s Civic Center, The Mosque, where
conventions, exhibitions, concerts and other events are held. It
contains an auditorium seating 5,000 persons. ¶ _Proceed eastward on
Franklin, halting between Madison and Henry Streets._
