Huckleberries Online

Local Question of the Day — 11/28/05

Issue: Out with the old: Some city motels could be replaced by new high-rises/Rick Thomas, Coeur d'Alene Press.

Additional Info: "But the rundown old motels on the east side of the city by the lake are sitting on ground that's becoming more valuable each year, leading many to believe they'll be facing the bulldozer sooner rather than later. By some estimates, as many as half are on the market at prices far above what their current earning potential is, and one already has a sale pending with a $1.5 million price tag" -- Rick Thomas.

Question: Are you ready for high-rises to dominate the eastern end of Sherman Avenue?
