donated after the Roanoke flood of 1985.
Just this year, Roanoke has re-visioned downtown's Elmwood Park with a new amphitheater shell,
hillside seating and fountains. A few blocks away,
the newly renovated Center in the Square. Formerly
a furniture warehouse, it was first renovated in the
1980s to house the theater, a planetarium, art, history and science museums, offices and classrooms,
signaling the shift in downtown from red light district to arts and business district. Last year, Center
in the Square re-opened following another major
renovation ($27 million). Downstairs, fish glide in
brilliant blue aquariums in the lobby; upstairs, butterflies dance in their own protected garden, and the
terraced rooftop includes a koi pond and plants. The
view from the top: Roanoke, a city transformed and
transforming, against a backdrop of deep blue
mountains beyond.
