A ceremonial groundbreaking was held at the future site of Peace Plaza at 110-112 1st St NW in Hampton Wednesday, June 7th. Attending were chamber and city officials along with project backers Rick and Julie Salvesen.
Approximately 3 years ago the Salvesens started an effort to build a public plaza on the two lots left empty after a January 2004 fire destroyed the businesses located there. The lots had sat vacant ever since. Plans include brick paving with a peace mosaic, a shelter, seating, wall panels and lighting.
