IT WAS A CHILLY MORNING, but that did not deter a large turnout at the Eden Center yesterday for the ceremonial unveiling of new signage symbolically renaming Wilson Boulevard as Saigon Boulevard. The event commemorated and honored the large Vietnamese-American population in Northern Virginia that center around the Eden Center. It marked the culmination of efforts since 2006 when the Falls Church City Council voted in favor of the idea.

A total of three signs were placed. This coming week, the Eden Center will host Viet New Year’s celebrations. (Photo: Gary Mester)
