[CARY, NC] – The North Carolina Veterans Freedom Park Foundation announced today it
has hired Sasaki Associates, Inc., to provide full design services for the new
11-acre park centrally located in the heart of North Carolina. When complete, the

memoirs of veterans and public artwork designed to symbolize the value of freedom
and to honor the hundreds of thousands of military veterans throughout North
Carolina and millions more across the nation.
Initial plans feature an educational/exhibit facility, walking trails, amphitheater,
and a ceremonial plaza. Sasaki Associates will round out the design with services

connections through design will make a recognizable difference on this project
dedicated to our country’s veterans.”
