Veterans' Memorial
The stadium entrance was designed to serve as a memorial to Western North Carolina’s war veterans, but the original vision of a true memorial was never completed. Today, the brick arch at the entrance is the only visual reminder of the proposed memorial. The City of Asheville and interested citizens have joined together to form the Memorial Stadium Action Committee to lead the effort to fulfill the original commitment to Asheville's Veterans' Memorial. Plans for the event plaza include interpretive exhibits and memorials to honor veterans from all U.S. conflicts. The monumental granite World War II memorial currently located on the campus of Mission Hospital will be moved to the stadium and integrated into the plan to create a moving, interpretive exhibit that honors and remembers those who served their country.
