Lookout Eugene-Springfield
Lane County’s first Black settlement was erased in 1949. A new monument will immortalize it.
Nearly 80 years after Lane County bulldozed a historically Black community for a bridge project, a life-size bronze sculpture will be placed in Alton Baker Park to honor the families who lived there.
