[QUOTE="piperbarb, post: 165086, member: 12214"] 6-26-13: Here are a several more photos I forgot to upload. I warned you all that this was a day to make up for the previous few. A number of years ago, the city, along with state and federal funds, decided to clean up a really icky part of the city along the Chenango River. They created the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Promenade. I took a walk through it today and it is really quite nice. It's definitely an asset to the city. [B]MLK Promenade[/B] [ATTACH=CONFIG]42030._xfImport[/ATTACH] When you turn to the right and walk along the sidewalk, there are many plaques along the way. [B]Pathway of Plaques[/B] [ATTACH=CONFIG]42028._xfImport[/ATTACH] Some may have heard of or remember about the mass shooting at the American Civic Association in Binghamton. I say that because it made national news for several days. I had a student who's mother worked at the nursing home right near by and he was very concerned about his mother that day. I can't blame him. Anyway, a very nice memorial was erected near the civic association in remembrance of the more than a dozen people who died. This is a photo of that memorial. Yes, you do see a pair of flip flops in front of one of the markers. That was deliberate from what I understand.
