Two Indian organizations will lease park land in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, for an Indian center.
HONOR and Loonsfoot Inc. will lease the land for $1 a year for 30 years, with the option to renew. The groups still need to raise $3.5 million to renovate a former U.S. Coast Guard station into a "world-class" history and cultural center.
The goal is to have the center open in 2006.
