“Veterans Walk of Honor”

 | 9 comments

I was reading through the Valley Post this afternoon looking for any good real estate articles for in Shasta County when I cam across this article: “Yarbrough pushing to build a ‘Veterans Walk of Honor.’” This article can be found on the first page of the February 24th Valley Post. The article was written by George L. Winship. The article reads as follows:

A narrow vacant lot between the Firehouse Lounge and Allen & Dahl Funeral Chapel in downtown Anderson may soon be home to an open-air veterans memorial honoring service members from World War I to Iraq and Afghanistan, if City Councilman James Yarbrough finds some financial backers.

With the help of landscape architect Michael Lander of Redding, Yarbough has developed a double-sided poster board with various details of what he has dubbed a Veterans Walk of Honor. Drawing on the poster board show the monument’s various sections as well as an overall view of what the mini-park mike look like.

One of the biggest costs – $100,000 – is replacement of a wall at the Firehouse Lounge that is in danger of collapse. Total cost is estimated at nearly $250,000 including benches, lights, paving and trees.
