Beautiful and moving Veterans Memorial--immaculately clean with glass panels honoring fallen…read moresoldiers. The grounds are perfectly maintained with trimmed grass and etched sidewalks. There's a peaceful bicycle trail that runs through the area, making it a great place to ride or walk. The September 11 memorial, featuring a beam from the World Trade Center, is especially powerful. A respectful and serene place to reflect.

You'll park in the parking lot in front of the Beirut Memorial and take a walk to the memorial, crossing the bridge until you reach the large pavilion. Glass panels, inscribed with Vietnam veterans line the memorial (they also light up at night) surround a fountain and pavilion.

It's a memorial, like many others, which has different connotations to different people. I thought it was tastefully done. The fountain with the glass wall of inscribed names is quite beautiful. They also have a dedication to 9-11.

I wanted to reach out and say that I am not a local resident here in Jacksonville, North Carolina…read more I reside in California and when I was going through my business here in Jacksonville, North Carolina and dealing with what I was dealing with with court cases things about that nature, I will definitely say the Ansel County sheriffs department as well as the Jacksonville Police Department have in fact, been very professional and very attentive to any of the cases that were presented as well as any complaints or concerns that I have had in the past and in current events. This is strictly for the police department. I understand that they don't have a yelp review page or anything like that. Totally understandable, but I just wanted to reach out and give the upmost valid comment on the departments at hand. When utilizing the courthouse and the courthouse system, they have been very polite, very respectful and on their regulations for ensuring safety and fairness for all people that go in and out of the court house.

Questions galore cause upon returning I want to know what they allow my to build both for my home to my business. From the reception girl to planning these folks are top notch. If any of you want to know anything about what to build to restrictions to anything don't hesitate to ask. My main question was can I build my retirement home with a chimney wood burning fireplace. YES YES YES....i am so happy this was the answer. Thank you everyone. Can't wait to finally go home in 2025.

Three silhouettes are carved out of one-inch steel, leaving spaces behind to represent the holes in the community left by those who gave their lives for others. The sculpture was constructed by former East Carolina University School of Art & Design Professor Carl Billingsley and installed in 2016. A poem by North Carolina Poet Laureate Shelby Stephenson adorns the right panel of the memorial; the names of the fallen are inscribed on the left. There is plentiful parking as it shared the lot with a nearby church. [Review 15504 overall, 1008 of 2021, number 3046 in North Carolina.]

We had the best time at the children's museum in Jacksonville! My two boys, ages 2 and 4, had an…read moreabsolute blast. There were so many different rooms filled with interactive displays and hands-on activities--we easily spent the entire afternoon exploring and playing. It's clear this place is well-loved and well-maintained. The staff was friendly and constantly tidying up to keep everything clean and inviting. It truly feels like a hidden gem! There's plenty of parking, and I really appreciated that you can bring your own snacks and drinks to leave in the checked bag area--so convenient for moms! If we lived closer, I would definitely grab a membership. It's such a great value and a perfect spot for regular visits. My boys are already asking when we can go back!

Seats are worn down, some have uncomfortable bars or hard spots and I find myself shifting around a lot during movies trying to get comfortable. Many theaters elsewhere have reclining seats, its a shame they have no upgraded. Many theater operators seem to have confused loud with with good. Sometimes when at this theater the speakers are cranked up so high the speakers are distorting and painful. I bring ear plugs now and use them to lower the volume.

The theater was okay, seating fine, though my daughter though they had recliners.....lol (in Jville, Na) During the movie we could hear the other movie (SO LOUD) it had to be an action movie. It was hard for us to hear our Romcom. At the end of the movie my daughter went to tell management. Perhaps moving action movies to a different room so it would not interfere with another movie would be helpful. When we told her about how hard it disrupted our movie the cashier just said, oh, I will tell my manager. No apology or let me get the manager. Just Okay.... We will never know if management was told or if they even care. Just an apology would have been nice to come out of the staffs mouth. They need better training on how to handle complaints. Just be aware of what movie is in the next room. The wall are thin.

Went here for the first time to see one of my favorite bands: The Plot in You…read more If I could give this venue zero stars I would. When we arrived at 8pm (an hr after the show started) there was already a line snaking around the building, and an employee of the venue told us there were already hundreds of people inside (venue definitely broke their fire code, we looked it up). The line moved extremely slow - the employees weren't scanning tix but instead reading off of a paper list, also the venue was already so packed there was literally no room for any new patrons to stand. We were actually in line so long we missed the first two bands playing that night, and half of the set of the third band - and we were offered no refunds on our tickets. I saw a few people leaving angrily in the parking lot for the same reason.. My rum and coke I ordered at the bar was over $20 (and it was house rum)... We eventually pushed our way to get through the doorway of the space where the bands were playing just enough to be out of the way of people coming and going from the room. We felt so claustrophobic and the space felt very unsafe due to the place being way over capacity. It was very very hot inside which was expected but not to the extent of over 100 degrees, but I wasnt prepared for the people around me's sweat to fall/drip on me - again, packed like sardines: otherwise that wouldn't have been happening. Oh, and forget about being able to go back out to the bar to get another over priced drink. There was no staff to help patrons in and out of the space. I will say the bartender that gave me my $20 rum and coke was pleasant. This will be the first and last time we go to this venue. Shame on management for over selling and overall putting a lot of people in an unsafe space

I read a lot of negative reviews about Hooligans and was very reserved in going to the venue…read moreHOWEVER, we went to the Hinder show last night Oct 26,2021 and the place was fantastic! Of course its not a massive amphitheater or huge concert hall its a small one that is perfect for who and what they deliver as far as expectations for said establishment. 1) Entry and security Long line for a show - that is normal and the line was average for the size of the place, no issue with that at all for it moved quickly. Security was professional and conducted themselves as such! They were thorough and that is there job! Good on them! 2) Appearance and accessibility Was definitely not a Ritz-Carlton but guess what!?! It was what you should expect for a small business in Jacksonville NC! I loved how you had an area out front in order to escape the noise and have a conversation. The bathrooms were the appropriate size and I had no issues with them at all. I saw a man in a wheel chair inside and the place is more than in compliance for access for folks who may need it. 3) Service and Internal Security Service was amazing! We had the pleasure of being served by two female bartenders in the music hall and they were fast, accurate, and very polite considering the volume! We sat in the VIP section and had a bartender come by and check on us every few minutes! It was fantastic! Prices are not bad at all for a club! Of course you get plastic cups because lets be real folks - glass would be everywhere if they tried to serve in said containers. Security was great! One guy looked like he hated life but the others were professional and courteous. Overall I would recommend this place for a good show and a good time! Its Rock and Roll people! Deal with it! Rock on Hooligans!!!
