    [...] I don’t want to step into this too deep, I don’t know enough of the story to really understand what is going on here. All I can say is that, as a resident of the general area, it pains me to see the neighborhood’s architectural heritage falling into rubble whether it is this prominent and historic commercial building or a forgotten little house hard up against the projects.
