"Friends of Multicare" Challenge Boiler Design

It’s been awhile since we’ve talked about the steam plant Multicare plans to build across the street from Wright Park.  Well it seems the number of opposing voices is rising.  Peter Callaghan’s column today introduces us to Paul Gingrich, a consulting architect for Tacoma General and an opponent of the current plans.  His point is that there are many ways Multicare could include the boiler design into the site without creating a public eyesore or pedestrian dead zone. 

“No matter how unobtrusive, it is not the right thing to be there. Because there are other places to put it, that’s where it should go,” he said. “When the public knows how MultiCare is riding roughshod over everyone, I think we can stop it.”
