You know, as was mentioned, this property has sat, you know, on Sutton Boulevard for a very long time.
0:20:18
It's been an eyesore.
0:20:19
It's been it's been a blight.
0:20:21
And just for my colleagues on the committee, this property pretty much is a is a pretty large vacant lot on a corner, but it abuts an elementary school.
0:20:31
So when you're looking at the rendering, if you can put the rendering back up, I just want to make sure that my colleagues are clear.
0:20:39
The rendering where the mural is, this the mural is literally abuts an elementary school with a fence there.
0:20:49
So PS twenty three is liter their playground is literally right here on this side of what would be this building.
0:21:00
So the community has been talking about this space for a very long time.
0:21:05
I just want my colleagues also to get an idea.
0:21:08
The chair touched on it a little bit as far as why this is this property has been, you know, just sitting there for so long.
0:21:16
And myself, just so I always say we're our own constituents, you know, as my own constituent, I'm sitting there, you know, all these years.
0:21:22
Why is this happening?
0:21:23
What's going on?
0:21:24
You know, we've seen this before COVID, now through COVID, after COVID, and it's just sitting there.
0:21:28
Nothing's happening except overgrowth and some stones.
