Comment on North Side Master Site Plan 21-029.
Hi there first time commenting. Less than a year ago I used to live at 22 west Lamme, the old Deaconess
Hospital (designed by local city son Fred Wilson). I'm disappointed that the building is planned on being
torn down for a few reasons.
1. It will be replaced with NOT affordable housing units. My wife and I had nice two bedroom apartment for
$1100, We could bike or take the Streamline to work. I doubt anything put there will go for less than 2.5k a
month.
2. That block has a unique feel. There's great trees and greenery on the south side. There's amazing brick
work on the exterior. Any replacement will look just as dated as the 70s design of the medical arts building
nextdoor in a few decades. It'd be amazing and wonderful if the current building was utilized in a similar
way as how the armory building was.
It was a cool and affordable place to live and I'd like whatever happens there to also be a cool and
affordable place to live. The medical arts building can go through, but I'm concerned about where the VA
clinic will go (I use that and I don't want to have to go to Fort Harrison). I'd love to talk more about this and
my number is attached, I know you don't have an easy job and I wish you the best of luck with your work.
Best Wishes
Bill Eickman
