Roosevelt’s chances get better
For those who really want to see historic Roosevelt High School saved, the news was pretty good this morning.
My colleague Cathy Mong reports that two groups that have been proposing separate redevelopment plans have decided to merge their proposals and create a joint plan.
The groups had somewhat different visions for how the 1923 school could be redeveloped and separately the financing on each proposal was good but not a slam dunk. For some time, observers have been whispering that the two groups should work together instead of compete.
Perhaps their joined proposal and financing will add up to a stronger case for saving the building and make what was shaping up to be a very tough call for the school board a little easier.
