Post Office Plaza Nameless No Longer
By Ashley Perryman

On Monday night the town council officially renamed the block in front of the Chapel Hill post office the Peace and Justice Plaza.

The council decided against naming the plaza for three civil rights and peace activists. Instead it opted to name the square for the concepts the square represents.

The activists names will still be displayed at the plaza but the Historic District and Public Arts commissions haven't decided yet how to display the names.
