[quote=Anonymous]The corner of Old Keene Mill and Backlick Roads is a mess. On the west side are two abandoned buildings long neglected by their owner, a DC-based LLC. On the east side are a cluster of now vacant commercial buildings bought by a developer (Schupp) that promised a new hotel five years ago, but appears incapable of delivering. These properties just sit and rot more and more each day. It’s past time for the county to tell these owners to get off their butts and do something. Redevelop them. Demolish them. Sell them to someone else who’s more willing and/or competent to revitalize them. The Springfield CBD has made some positive strides recently and it’s on a good path for future growth. Inaction around these eyesores is inexcusable.[/quote]
