Zito: $70M Project Now On Hold

Vinny Zito (re: "A sneak preview at MikeK's fliers"): Now that I have addressed some of the mistruths that have been circulating within this board, let me tell you what is and has been going on with the 70+ million dollar project. It is on hold possibly indefinitely. I, myself and the powers that be, have not decided if CdA is someplace that we want to invest that type of money into. We reached this decision through a process of events that occurred directly after we approached the city building department, being good neighbors, and spoke to a certain individual that basically dissuaded us from proceeding. Which is, as I see it, unfortunate for the residents of CdA. This project was going to be a direct economic stimulus package in the sum of 70+million dollars for the residents of the CdA area. We have the engineers, contractors and architects, all local boys, ready to go!! Full post here.

Question: Would you like to see Vinny Zito's project on the east end of Sherman Avenue?
