Broad Creek conservationist says development that respects the county's 350-year history can help lift Prince George's to forefront of nation's historical landscape
David A. Turner walked through a tract of his land into a small clearing with a flowing creek.
'I wanted to leave this as undisturbed as possible," Turner said of the property he owns in the historic Broad Creek community in Fort Washington. ''This is the way to preserve historical land and still be able to live on it."...
June Dillard, president of the Prince George's County NAACP, said Turner helped get funding for an initiative to document the oral histories of prominent black residents and for the African American Heritage Trail, which opened April 18 with 20 interactive sites around the county.
