Amazed2, I was actually thinking what you just said. However, according to his linkedin page linkedin.com/in/theaaronblair he was project manager for a 14.5 million project in florida. I would say he can handle 607k. Also, I would say if he can save 4000$ do it. ADICA may have been messed up in the past but lets give these people a chance.
You all need to calm down. Did you not noticed that it said that ADICA didn't take the $5 a year. Blair said in the article $500 a month lease. Quick to judge
Actually Bigbob Mr. Wurst has owned those buildings for a long time. They are the ugliest buildings in Downtown. Im glad to see the boarded up windows will be gone. good decision. dickyboy, I just called the downtown office for a list of approved facade grants and the current businesses approved have been open for more than 9 months from what i can tell.
""I got the flu last week and wasn't able to go to work. I took the time to really think about (the restaurant closing), and I decided it was in the best interest of my business to stay open."
Maybe he is actually making money in that location. Just a thought. I say, good decision Dale. Think positive Albany
Cartman I haven't seen him post on this story yet. I asked him at the last ADICA meeting if he reads comments and he said sometimes. He told me his comment name is theaAaronblair just for future reference
Sister ruby, seriously do you not have anything better to do but be negative. When did you last go down there. So hurtful to speak like that towards the place we live. How many comments till its a racial issue?
Nice article. I think I kinda like this guy. I agree with fixing the surrounding neighborhoods. Looking back at 2 years ago I did not know we had 20 something less businesses. Wow. That's crazy. Seems empty now how about 20 less. I say good job
