Hmm another money laundering project from an OTB that will become a welfare hotel in short order. Hope the developer gets the coronavirus.
Always get a nervous feeling when the architect has engineering in their name.
Someone said this is going to be homeless shelter is this correct. If yes I thought they was going to build a school across the street from your site and a shelter would be dangerous for kids and this community
Eight parking spots for 76 rooms? Deny the permit.
The new term for homeless shelters these days is “Hotel”. Not even motel.
