Bluefield Mini-Park Project Advances in Downtown
Bluefield officials report progress on the downtown mini-park at the former Kresge site between Bland and Federal streets. Sidewalk work is mostly finished and patio construction may start this week. The project includes two large patios, benches, lighting, plantings, and a mural by Larry Akers depicting 1950s Bluefield. Funding comes from the sale of land for the new Bluefield Junior High, with costs around 30 thousand dollars. Woody Brothers handle construction under city supervision. Completion depends on weather. Flat Top Insurance Agency’s cooperation made the project possible, with a 20 year lease paying the city nine thousand dollars annually and credits for park space rentals.
