Another building that celebrates the culture of the area is the King Center, which is a memorial where the Center for Nonviolent Social Change still works to keep King’s vision of peace alive. The center itself is a multimillion dollar facility built in the early 1980s, and the organization that meets in the center was founded in 1968 by Coretta Scott King. The center includes a memorial tomb for Dr. King, where Coretta Scott was interred in 2006, and a giant reflecting pool in the centers courtyard.
