Here is a short of the north wing before it was dug into.
And now.
Look at the David Stott – standing there all nervous, staring down into the gaping mess that used be the Lafayette Building.
The Stott has to be thinking, “if they’ll do that to the Lafayette, will I be far behind ?”
Oops. Starting to be more broken windows.
the criteria:
“can we afford it?”
“is it an election year?”
Well – thats the big question. I wouldnt think any structure would rank against MCS or Packard for needing to be torn down first. Yet instead we get Tiger Stadium and Lafayette.
What criteria does the city use in deciding to tear a building down? No chance of redevelopment or that it’s becoming a public harard?
