Abstract:
Broadway in Lee County is the site for the state's only memorial dedicated to all past, present, and future military personnel. The North Carolina Veteran's Memorial was dedicated on November 13, 2005. By design the memorial and surrounding park is a work in progress. The goal is to have the name of every North Carolinian who has served in the military on plaques in the memorial. Each plaque holds eighty-eight names. The number of names is approaching 600 at present.

Abstract:
In 1999, the flood that followed Hurricane Floyd destroyed all four buildings of Rocky Mount's Children's Museum and the city's Art Centre. In choosing a new location in the downtown area, the city selected the old Imperial Tobacco Factory and the former Braswell Memorial Library. The Imperial Centre, which opened in January 2006, is home to the Children's Museum, the Arts Center, and a planetarium that will open in March 2006.
