That will make space for a full rehabilitation of the Aurora into a high-end historical hotel--which it once was. It sounds like a great project. The Aurora is such a beautiful building, and I love that the owner is building the new high-rise right next door to make sure former residents don't lose their homes or their community. I think the neighborhood will fully support this project. It seems to be planned in just the right way.
