Rosie The Riveter Visitor Center
Red Oak Victory Ship
Located on the waterfront in Richmond, CA, these two places are part of the the WWII Home Front National Historical Park. The Rosie The Riveter Trust supports this unusual urban national park. It is the flagship national park for telling stories of the home front efforts across the United States. Park sites you can visit include the Oil House Visitor Center, the Rosie the Riveter Memorial, the historic Ford Assembly plant, Maritime Childcare Center, and more.
These pictures are from Scarlett and Dan's Sept 13, 2016 visit to Richmond.
