Abilene Heritage Square: The First 100 Years
Abilene Heritage Square is an eight-acre, $78 million project to turn a historic high school into a “community living room,” according to the organization's board. Among the many thousands of people passing through its doors were war heroes, mayors, future nuclear physicists, inspirational teachers and a few scoundrels. The Legacy Committee was started to tell the story of those thousands who love the building.
Instructor Gwen White taught at Lincoln Middle School and is a co-chair of the Legacy Committee.
