BAVPA Reconstruction - End Week 2

0 Comments Published by fix buffalo on 7/07/2006 at 5:57 PM.

My neighbors are becoming increasingly more excited about playing host to what will certainly become the crowned jewel of Buffalo's public schools. This week the sounds of diesel fired heavy construction equipment have filled the air and as you can see most of the 4 acres of parking lot that used to act as a climate changing "heat sink" in the neighborhood are just about gone. Lots more site work this week. You'll also notice that a couple construction trailers arrived, too. Here's what the place looked like before they started.

There is a quality even meaner than outright ugliness or disorder, and this meaner quality is the dishonest mask
of pretended order, achieved by ignoring or suppressing the real order that is struggling to exist and to be served.
