And why must everything be designed in 'suburban-stucco-modern'
architechture ?
I'm still picturing that bandstand building, how badly it was
butchered architecturally.
And how easy it would have been to preserve it as the really unique
piece of AP that it is. It would still be occupied by the same
businesses. Nothing would be different except it would look like its
supposed to, like it was designed to be.
And the bandstand would be usable.
