HERITAGE CENTER
|
The construction of a heritage center was brought forward as an enhancement option for the proposed project. Those desiring the addition of recreational facilities, such as a historic or cultural museum, view the resulting economic revenue from such facilities as a way to increase tourism and income for the area. Others view these facilities as an avenue towards remembrance of the area's culture and history for present and future generations. Displaced WW II soldiers, local family heritage, Cherokee Culture, and the history of the timber industry were some suggestions for themes to a heritage center.
