Tourism Red Ink

By Greg Allen
Published November 28, 2002 at 12:00 AM EST

NPR's Greg Allen reports from Kearney, Neb., on the financial problems facing The Great Platte River Road Archway Monument. Like many other tourist attractions around the country, the monument is hurting from a slump in visitors and a soft economy. The archway was constructed to commemorate many of the important historical events as early settlers migrated to the West.
