Aiken Local Scene Faces Change As 570 Jobs Leave
The 14 line area closes after 47 years and SRS shifts post Cold War focus to remediation and new missions. Washington Center for the Performing Arts opens in October at Newberry Street, housing Aiken Community Playhouse under the same roof as Washington government HQ. Public debate rages over a Whiskey Road hotel and convention center as zoning allows the project. AABL tv’s In Search of America segment aired as Gods Country, drawing mixed local response. Voters tied to Mark Sanford, Charles Sharpe, Greg Ryberg, Jim Stewart, Kenneth Clark and others, with elections reshaping local offices.
