Pritchard Park in downtown Asheville has become a popular hang out for the homeless using the area to meet . But then again , Pritchard Park has been a meeting place in the past also. During the Civil War the Ohio Infantry was charged with taking over Asheville while our troops were in battle elsewhere. A group of local Ashevillians met up in Pritchard Park , young and old , rich and poor and everything in between gathered there to have sort of a pep rally . Then they marched to what is now called the Botanical Gardens on the campus of The University of North Carolina at Asheville and defeated the Ohio Infantry although some of the Ohio troops did get into the city and burned down the confederate barracks in downtown where the Buncombe county courthouse stands today. It's said by downtown residence , the homeless and business owners that you can hear the Civil War rally to this day late on Saturday nights in the park . From yelling and gun shots to the sound of the hoofs of horses on the streets yet if you look the street and park will be standing empty.
