Fairview to anchor neighborhood project
The Phoenix Project, a public-private partnership aimed at improving the neighborhood around Good Samaritan Hospital, announced today that a new Fairview Elementary School would be the centerpiece of a redevelopment project.
Currently two Fairviews, a middle school and an elementary school, serve that neighborhood. The hospital, the city and the City-Wide Development Coalition hope to work together to place the new school on a new site at the center of a project linking public areas and amenities. The fate of the properties where the current buildings stand is undetermined as yet.
The new K-8 school should open in 2009 at a cost of about $13 million plus about $2.5 million to acquire land.
