The land was apparently deeded to the City in 1920 on a 99 year lease, and the lease is up. The American Legion is going to celebrate their 100th anniversary at the site, but then it sounds like their looking to move. There's a petition to register the property as historic, but apparently the American Legion doesn't support it, and my understanding is that property owner/user support is usually key to getting something designated. City will be looking for proposals that have at least some veteran-related aspects, e.g. subsidized veteran housing (like was recently built in Tempe).

Awesome! Im really excited to see that side of downtown flip up along grand.

The 5 corner at Grand and 7th and Van Buren could be really cool if developed.
