Prime Real Estate

By: Mr. Wilson on June 27, 2006
I read recently that the City plans to sell the vacant lot on the northeast corner of 27th Street and Old Cheney Road. The lot was originally reserved for a library, but the library was eventually built on South 14th Street instead. The plan, as I understand it, is to sell the lot to the owners of adjacent apartment buildings, further expanding the availability of apartment living around the area. It isn't a bad use for the space, all things considered. But I have to admit I'm a little disappointed. In my head I long ago decided that the corner would make a great location for some sort of Sunken Gardens II. In fact, I had decided that there should be several "Sunken Gardens" here and there along 27th Street. Oh well, more apartments isn't so bad, all things considered. Not as pretty, no, but certainly more practical.
