It’s the BREW part II! Tonight…

Still confused about exactly what we did and didn’t vote for?! We are too!

Come to the BrewHaHa!

What happens next with Eugene’s downtown?

Hosted by Bus Project of Lane Co and Eugene Weekly

Date: Wednesday, November 28, 2007
Time: 6:00pm - 8:00pm
Location: Davis’ Restaurant
94 w. broadway.

A monthly non-partisan, interactive, in your face political slam.

This month:
Since measure 20-134 was shot down, many community members have been wondering what’s next for the downtown pits.

Our October downtown debate pulled in more than 90 attendees.

This month we are not looking to have as much of a debate on the issue, but to instead have a community discussion on the next steps. We’ll be inviting 5-6 panelists in the hopes that they can shed some light on the project ahead.

Speaker invites include developers, local architects, U of O Professors, and possibly even a student who has been following the issue.

So come on down to DOWNTOWN and VOICE your opinion over a few PINTS!

As long as they save the Starlight and sweep out some Urchins, I’m good to go!

On the sears pit/Diamond parking lot site,Cut apart that I-5 bridge tke downtown via railroad, haul right down the street…Then reassemble the bridge across from the library, for a lower story upper story artificial field’s. Sears pit would become underground parking or Efficient supermarket. You could call it Hole Foods!
So…Built over the sears pit and diamond parking site on the ground level would be a field and above that 5 stories up high off the ground would be second story of fields(to allow daylight to penetrate lower fields and those bridge supports are huge anyway why waste?), retail/ housing around the east and west edges… You can see the pics at http://www.ViewOregon.com or http://www.EugenE-BAY.com we now sell real estate online.
