Preston Springs Hotel Redevelopment

[ac3r]

Keeps getting repeated? Are you referring to the Mayfair (which was planned to be renovated)? Or some other examples?

How about the John Forsyth factory on Young st, the Barra Castle on Queen, Electrohome on Shanley (is that being demolished soon?). All allowed to deteriorate beyond saving.   Must be more?

The Forsyth building was an absolute disaster and would have been torn down either way, unless someone was willing to sink tens of millions of dollars into preserving it (and obviously, nobody would). Barra Castle was also in very, very poor condition and was an ugly building anyway - I never really understood the love for that thing, it was so kitsch. The Electrohome building was already torn down and was pretty unremarkable anyway...just because it's an old factory doesn't mean it's worth saving, they need to have some sort of architectural and historical value.
