Yeah, the school I posted was going to be replaced by a Fairway Store, they offered $450,000, but they backed out after the neighbors fought having a cinder block grocery store in this historic neighborhood. After Fairway backed out a local guy who has done some beautiful local renovations made an offer of $100,000. That's when the city and school board said, nope, too late! People around here are majorly pissed they declined the offer for really no reason whatsoever and now have to remove it for $275,000.
Well, it now really is too late since the school is now half gone (I've only seem photos since I can't bring myself to drive past). My hood is slowley turning from a beautiful, historical, treefilled area to a place of disposable architecture and plastic signage.......I'm sure the school property will be filled with something just as beautiful like a Verizon Store or CVS......
A restaurant directly across the street from the school was the location for an episode of
Restaurant Impossible set to air next week. I'm sure people might catch a glimpse of the school on TV.
