Community Meeting for Whitehaven residents at The Guest House at Graceland to discuss new Graceland projects

Please join us on Thursday, April 26, 2018 at 6pm, at The Guest House

 

A new Graceland exhibit space, a new arena and a new "Made in Memphis" manufacturing center in Whitehaven means up to 1,000 new jobs for Whitehaven Residents

- The new Graceland hotel and exhibit complex has already created hundreds of new jobs. Over 70% of Graceland employees reside in Whitehaven. New projects will mean up to 1,000 more jobs. 

- The development at Graceland is not a financial burden on the city. 

- In 2017 alone, Graceland's new development has resulted in an increase in city/county taxes paid of over $2.5 million. 

- The new Graceland arena is not intended to compete with existing venues- but to increase the number local events, conventions, and conferences taking place in Memphis throughout the year. 

- The arena will also serve as a prime location for local Whitehaven community events (graduation ceremonies, community concerts, etc). 

- The new exhibit space will bring more tourists to our community who will shop in Whitehaven stores, eat in Whitehaven restaurants, and stay in Whitehaven hotels/motels. 

- The new manufacturing facility will create a new manufacturing hub right here in Whitehaven- with a focus on hiring Whitehaven residents. 

 

Graceland development has created hundreds of new jobs for Whitehaven residents. Continued Graceland development in Whitehaven will create up to 1,000 more. Join us on April 26, 2018 at 6pm to learn the facts directly from Graceland. The Guest House at Graceland- 3600 Elvis Presley Blvd.
