MARION A large mixed-use development in east Marion, formerly known as Squaw Creek Crossing, has changed its name.
The development, now known as East Town Crossing, follows efforts to remove an ethnic and sexual slur toward Native American women from names of places in Linn County.
East Town Crossing, at the intersection Highways 13 and 151, is a 20-acre property, already hosting a Kwik Star, Panchero’s, Jersey Mike’s and Pizza Ranch as well as Dupaco Community Credit Union. The site also will be home to other businesses in the future as well as a hotel and apartments.
The name change creates a “welcoming environment to all in the area,” according to a news release from Ridge Development, developer of the $15 million project.
