Bocce on Thursdays: Week 7
 |
It’s Thursday and we need to get outside and play. The work week has been hard and our schedule has been packed. I know you’re probably tired from the 100th Monkey, but bocce isn’t that hard – especially the way we play. So, unless you’re busy and attending the Tacoma Streetcar meeting tonight, come on by and play some ball. South side of Wright Park near the picnic benches and the lawn bowling club at 7:00 pm. Who’s in? Who’s bringing balls? |

why does a hospital own a bunch of empty historical houses in a residential neighborhood? Whose bright idea?

so traveling nurses can rent them? nurses like them old timey houses.

no. nobody is renting these houses. They are future parking lots (if Multicare can pull strings and get zoning code changed).

Not rentals, nope. They just want to wait till they fall into disrepair and everyone forgets about them, then pull out the bulldozer.

It’s all about moats.
Hospitals nationwide are known for creating moats around their properties. A Historic District makes it slightly more challenging for multi-billion dollar corporations (i.e. Multicare) to rip out buildings in order to create moats. However, if the strategy is “demolition by neglect” then there is little that even Historic status can do.
