Our Heritage

For over 300 years, successive waves of immigrants have left imprints on the Corridor. Outward signs of cultural diversity and ethnic identity line the streets of every town and city in the Corridor. Agricultural landscapes bear witness to generations of farmers. Rows of identical houses close to industrial buildings tell of "company towns." Artists found beauty and community among the hills. Churches, ethnic cultural centers and community celebrations are important icons linking us to the roots of the Corridor's past and its vibrant future.
