We would like to see the City turn this building (which it obtained from the dissolved redevelopment agency) back over to community serving use rather than marketing it to investors.
Fat chance. We have to come up with a cogent economic reason why a significant building like this one should be saved and re-used. You can ‘t just say, “It’s pretty.”

I would too! The cultural center shouldn’t have been deactivated in the first place.
