City Panel Approves Spending $100K+ to Move Packers Heritage Monuments
Green Bay’s Redevelopment Authority Thursday approved spending $109,701 to remove the Packers Heritage Trail monument to make way for an apartment complex.
The Packers Heritage Plaza features the statues of Paul Hornung, Johnny “Blood” (McNally), Bart Starr and team co-founder George Whitney Calhoun, among others. The Plaza also includes a large recognition wall and green space enhancements. It opened in 2013.
However, when the city approved plans for an apartment complex on the site, it said the plaza would have to be moved to an undetermined location. Packers Heritage, Inc., sued, seeking to keep the display in its current location at the corner of Washington and Cherry streets. But the team later relented, and agreed to move the display.
