Downtown Walk

Some interesting pictures, including a brown Kings Inn! That's right, the tacky painted mural that wrapped around the building, along with the faded yellow paint, and untreated lumber boarding up all the windows are painted over in one swoop with a dark brown. .

brown Kings Inn! man, that's some low-budget urban renewal! and shockingly it looks pretty good! sure would be nice to have something useful go in there.

It's complicated, but it seems a window of opportunity has opened up on the King's Inn. Now that the County is in a Trustee position, will Reno Redevelopment get into the picture? The King's looks too expensive to implode for lot value, but also too expensive redevelope without subsidy from the city. My guess is status quo progress, and nothing happens for a long, long time, unless we act. Anyone else willing to donate to a non-profit "Just Make It Go Away" fund?
