"Because of a lapse in federal appropriations, this National Park facility is closed for the safety of visitors and park resources."

Dr, Bernice King, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr,'s daughter cried about the facility shutting down during her Father's Birthday celebration and said this, according to News Reports:

"I feel a little bit of sadness because our main partner in this area, in this district, is the National Park Service ... and they are not here with us today," King told reporters last week. "I didn't expect to cry over this."
