Open spaces renamed with Wintu language in Redding
In an act of cultural appreciation, two open spaces in Redding are being renamed using the native Wintu language. What has been known as the Henderson Open Space along the bank of the Sacramento River in the heart of the city will now be known as “Nur Pon Open Space.” About $5-million have been spent in the area in the last 10 years, including the construction of a salmon spawning channel.
