That has now beed proposed, but the state department who's job it is to profit form unused property really doesn't care. It's not how the law is set up. Perry had opposed the sale for a long time and this year for unknown reasons decided to drop his opposition.
There are folks who are trying to get this property use re-evaluated, but it has gone back up for sale already. The law would have to be re-examined ASAP. Probably not going to happen.
Folks at Cambridge can oppose building based on many things, but the CVC is not one of them. Many more folks and officials would have to be on board. So unless the state officals who are in the building can get someones ear quick.... the view will be gone. That is within the law.
