From what I can tell the Sons of Confederate Veterans have progressed slowly on their museum.
This is a website for the museum. http://www.theconfederatemuseum.com/
Originally there was talk about it being open this summer. This Facebook posting shows where it is now. (Almost a day ago. Sept. 10, 2018)

They are making some progress, but it looks like to me they are just beginning.
I am guessing that they don't have the money. I think though they found a way to get the money.
There is a settlement with the Sons of Confederate Veterans and they are getting a little over $30 million dollars in the settlement with the city of Memphis.

That should cover the costs of the museum unless a lot of money is spent on investigating heritage violations some place with really expensive meals for meetings. Not that I know that they would do that.
What about the $acred memory of Forre$t, Their great $outhern hero. Well $30 million is a lot of money and if you are short of money it can be sort of handy.
