Lahore Virginia, future outlook

We did an original story on a town in Virginia named after Pakistani town of Lahore. In a follow-up to that story, we talk to Pakistani-American Noor Naghmi, who has bought a parcel of land in Lahore and is planning to build a school, a grocery store, a post office and a museum and also recreate some of the most prominent landmarks found in the Pakistani town of Lahore such as the legendary Shalimar Gardens and the Lahore Fortress. He also plans to start a bed and breakfast place, retaining the 18th century American heritage and adding a touch of Lahori hospitality to it where tourists can stay and experience a taste of Pakistani Lahore in Virginia USA.
