new use for old school near downtown, Clinton Ave should be redeveloped as a landscaped/improved gateway corridor to downtown
"The city school board voted to authorize Superintendent Casey Wardynski to execute a deal for the Stone Middle School and its grounds with developer Randall Schrimsher, who already bought almost four acres of the property back in January.
On the west end of the site, school system officials said, one tenant would be Huntsville-based brewery Straight to Ale.
"Currently there is a plan for new vertical construction toward the easterly section of the parcel that will house Yellowhammer Brewery, with parking lot and amphitheater-type area in the middle," said Chief Financial Officer Jason Taylor. "A gateway to the Entertainment District."
Officials said the price for the site will be $1.139 million, and that the development plans include tearing down about 30,000 square feet of the old building. The majority of the school building will remain intact."
