In May 2024, Legacy sponsored the City of Fredericksburg Spotlight event held by the Fredericksburg Area Builders Association (FABA). The event featured guest speaker Bill Freehling, the Economic Development Director for the City of Fredericksburg. Bill discussed ongoing and upcoming economic development initiatives in the city, such as the groundbreaking of the new Middle School on Idlewild Boulevard, the opening of the Publisher Hotel, The Sky Bar, and the Port Oysteria & Brewery, as well as enhancements to Riverfront Park and the Wastewater Treatment Plant.
