I remember the theater. As kid’s we would get a ride to the theater, from Richfield. Small place, but we watched Saturday matinees mainly about monsters. Believe it or not,the ticket price for admission was 9 cents.
I grew up in Richfield in the 1950’s, I clearly remember the old drive in theater. Also the Collins carnival in that area, which had batting cages, and other sport activities there. At the SE corner of 78th and Portland avenue was a gas station, then heading East,a Dairy Queen then Stadium Bowl. At some point in the mid 60’s, a place called ‘The Alps’ was built. It was a hang out for those in there twenties. It has music and served beer.
