From Wikipedia: Historic Richmond Town is an open-air live museum located in the Richmondtown neighborhood in Staten Island, New York City, in the United States. It is located near the geographical center of the island, at the junction of Richmond Road and Arthur Kill Road.

It was formerly the center of a commercial town and included the former courthouse of Richmond County, which is coterminous with the borough of Staten Island. The site also contains other former commercial and governmental buildings, as well as farm buildings and homes relocated from other parts of Staten Island. Historic Richmond Town is a village comprised of 27 historic buildings and sites dating from the late 17th to the early 20th Century. [1]
