No surprise there. Now that downtown is gutted, I guess Windsor has to ok the destruction of Erie street surroundings.
Common Dave... You are forgetting that the sole purpose of a city is to move and store automobiles... how can we do that with all those pesky buildings in the way!?!
NOTICE!! NEW PARKING LOT TO APPEAR ON THIS SITE SOON! LOL
Oh the humanity!

i wonder how much eddie francis is getting paid to allow all these demos to go on?Eventually all the historic buildings will be gone and they are going to have to knock down the newer buildings?
It's ok Orlando. We can jusrt put up stucco'ed crap. Isn't nice to be just like every other city that was founded in......1965. lol
