I completely agree with this article. It’s a shame that the building’s condition has been in such disrepair for so many years. What’s even more surprising is that with the expensive rehabilitation of the Children’s Museum, one did not consider a task effort to rehabilitate the surrounding area to better serve the community and visitors. But without the community politicians and residents of the area coming together to petition the city to at least resolve the safety and public hazard , the building will probably remain that way for another 38 years! And dare I say that the city would never let this problem exist in the more affluent neighborhoods…… Great article.
