I don't know how long it will take for this to make the "official" news channels but word on the street (singular) is that the County did indeed vote to collect bids for the demolition of the Breuer Tower.
While some may argue that the County's reasons lack merit, are fiscally unsound and just plain dumb I would like to argue that I am sure there are more devious reasons afoot. Something along the lines like the building blocks the gateway to Zuel's (from Ghostbuster's fame, who should probably have a myspace page) home dimension or some such.
Go ahead and chortle. When Jimmy Dimora rides through town on the back of a giant Stay Puft Marshmallow Man don't come crying to me. The plan still has to go through the Cleveland Planning Commission so it could still be quashed if the right people became vocal.
With all the problems that Cleveland has right now, razing what could become an architectural gem for a plethora of misguided reasons just makes this city seem, I don't know, dumber then we should seem. Dumber and corrupt and just plain awful. I don't like feeling awful.
