Was in Anderson today, took a few photos of two of the four houses there in the giveaway land deal. They are foreclosing on about 18 of the 26 some odd lots that they gave away.
One of the houses if for sale, the roads are pretty wide though the subdivision which is south of the main town and is more than likely an attempt to make the town look better in the longer run. The main town has streets, but they are very narrow, and there is a lot of abandon houses there that are just falling apart. If they ever closed Clear AFB, the place would just dry up and go away...
One guy is building a "Bed and Breakfast" at the very end of the road, looks like it will be a really nice place when it is done, but there is nothing there to draw people there. The town is about ten miles back off the main Parks Hwy, and other than the Anderson Blue Grass Festival, the other 362 days of the year, it is pretty dead.... They mean well, and are trying, but nothing there is able to draw people like Denali National Park does, or even just a restaurant along the Parks highway has more drawing appeal....
