Click on the letter above for a larger version.
FYI - Here's a copy of the letter that was sent by the Meadowbrook Civic league to Norfolk City Manager Regina Williams regarding the outcome of the School for International Studies building (near Little Creek & Hampton Blvd.). The school will relocate in 2010 and the property reverts to the city. The Lochhaven Civic league has joined the Meadowbrook Civic League in requesting updates on any actions or plans the city has for the building.
Some observations.
This is an old building and probably in some need of repair. That the city is facing an economic squeeze at this time, they most likely won't have the funds to develop the structure into anything for the foreseeable future. Rather than mothball the building, they may choose to tear it down. This is speculation, but you can clearly see why the neighborhoods surrounding the property want a transparent and updated progress report from the city manager. We will not tolerate an abandoned building that becomes a nuisance to the area.
I will keep you posted on the updates.
