Look to the future
Don't go back to 1965
Don't go back before I-40 was built
Have vision !!

Sell it.....

office space

Not too long ago previous county manager Bruce Shell suggested leasing out more of the building adjacent to the current county offices on Goverment Center Drive. But the commisioners thought better. Hmmmm, I know hind sight is 20/20, but they saw this coming. Wonder what other hind sight is coming (landfill/Wastec)?

302 Chestnut

Spending these dollars....that makes as much sense as building a Baseball Stadium!!

idiots

There is no historical value to that building, they are wasting our money. They could us that money to start the WASTEC facility back up!!

320 Chestnut Street

No. New Hanover County should not spend up to $10 million to renovate. They should put the building up for sale.
