The nonprofit onePulse Foundation has ended its plans to construct a
museum in Orlando to honor the victims of the Pulse nightclub shooting.

Representatives from the foundation met last week with Mayor Jerry
Demings of Orange County and told him that the projected cost of the
museum had risen too high, making it unfeasible to build. In deciding to
terminate the multimillion dollar project, the foundation agreed to give
property it had purchased for the museum site to the county.

The foundation had hoped to build the museum at a site only a short
distance from the former club, which is being converted into a permanent
memorial. The combined project was estimated to cost $45 million. The
city of Orlando has said it will continue to work to create a memorial
at the Pulse site.

“Unfortunately the Covid-19 pandemic generated unprecedented
fund-raising and construction challenges, and our project stalled and
rapidly stopped,” Earl Crittenden, the foundation’s board chairman wrote
in a letter delivered at the meeting with county officials. “Once the
global shutdown eased, we faced escalating construction costs that make
the project financially unrealistic to complete as originally
conceived.”

Barbara Poma, the former owner of Pulse, established the foundation to
honor the victims of the 2016 mass shooting at the club, in which a
gunman killed 49 people and wounded more than 50 others. Poma served as
chief executive and executive director of the foundation before leaving
the organization this year.
