[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The proposed location is terrible. No grounds at all. Makes me glad we didn’t take a chance on Cooper.[/quote] Not true. Building sits on an acre of land. The acre could be landscaped nicely and there’s room for a basketball court.[/quote]

We have been in that building and on the grounds.  Behind it is the parking lot.  It’s right in the corner of North Capitol St.

I have no idea how that is true that there is an acre of land.  I do t see much land/grass.  The building and parking lot takes up most of everything.

Exactly. It’s a parking lot. At a busy intersection. No thanks.[/quote]

Come on, the site will be redeveloped if the two charter schools purchase it.  A high fence can be built the current parking lot will no longer be there.

[/quote] Kirov has parking behind the gates.

Redevelop what?  They are not going to tear down the building with the cost and build new.

Have you even driven by that area?  Where exactly do you think the teachers and staff will park?  On north Capitol street and Harewood road where there is no street parking? Or the small, small street behind the school which basically has no spaces with houses there.[/quote]

It’s also a terrible area for drop off and pick up.  It’s right at the corner of North Capitol and Harewood.  There is just no space for it and no place anywhere to pull up or stop.

Building is small, very busy intersection, no street parking, no green space.  Driving down North Capitol to the school and back downtown wil also be a mess as Nirth Capitol is one of the main thoroughfare in and out of the city.
