^ Yeah, it's been a long time coming, but it finally seems to be taking hold. The director of the redevelopment authority brings some very good ideas to the table. He's not from Erie, which is very refreshing for the city. He has big ideas and seems to have the educational and professional background to turn them into reality. That was never so before in Erie... you had complete idiot political hacks appointed to these types of positions who had no formal education or training in administration, economic, or legal matters. They basically just held the position to receive kickbacks from demolition and concrete contractors, and the city obviously suffered as a result.

I'll get back and get some photos one of these days.
