The City will be renovating an existing blighted building at 110 N. Vanderhurst Avenue to become the new Visitor and History Center. The King City Chamber of Commerce & Agriculture will relocate their office in the building and operate the visitor center, which will serve as a welcoming center for tourists. The building will also feature a “mini-museum” area for the public and historical archives for local researchers. The facility will be located in the heart of the downtown adjacent to the new Downtown Plaza and is a key component of the overall downtown revitalization effort. According to Mayor Mike LeBarre, “ We are extremely appreciative to T-Mobile for this grant to complete our Visitor and History Center Project. It will represent the culmination of our downtown revitalization efforts, generate pride and education throughout the community by promoting our rich local history, and will provide important economic development benefits by welcoming visitors to our community.”
