seems weird to do this decades after it closed, and several years into a development proposal....

Don't people have their deposits locked up here? I agree its weird that the City years later comes in and does this.

Only slightly related, but I was cycling past this building at night 2 weeks ago and saw Stinson outside with a hammer and plywood repairing the hoarding over one of the doors. Guy is such a character, in a city full of characters.

It’s only weird if Stinson were actually moving things here. Balls’ in his court.

So now because of the city's designation we are going to have another building that will sit and fall down due to neglect. There was no reason for this designation at this time with a development proposal at hand. All this is going to do is add costs and kill the proposal no matter how tenuous it was to begin with.

Knowing Stinson's track record, it's unlikely the proposal would have gone far.
