Potter’s Terrace on East Third Street in Jamestown has been closed for safety concerns, the Jamestown Renaissance Corporation said Tuesday. A fence was installed around the area, which was recently evaluated and found to have structural issues. The Jamestown Renaissance Corporation owns the property and will evaluate future options for the site. Potter’s Terrace, also known as AIDS Memorial Park or Wood Park, had been dedicated as a memorial for AIDS victims. The JRC will be reaching out to the community for input on re-establishing the memorial. Questions regarding the closure of Potter’s Terrace should be directed to Pete Miraglia, JRC executive director, at 489-3494.
