The original Auxiliary Gift Shop sometime in the late 60’s or early 70’s.

Deja Vu

It’s come full circle. During the atrium renovations, the Richmond Hospital & Healthcare Auxilary Gift Shop was temporarily relocated to the small space across from the Switchboard. Turns out this was its permanent home from 1966 to 1974 – when the space had much larger windows – before it moved to an area near Medical Imaging and then into its previous atrium location.

The gift shop will move next week to its permanent, custom built home in the newly renovated atrium. The large, bright space is centrally located and features lots of display and storage space.

Other services to be located in the newly renovated atrium will move in over the next two weeks, including the ATM machine. A special Open House is being planned for the end of the month. Watch this newsletter for further information.
