Save Pickle Mansion

Pickle Mansion is a beautiful historic building in Ft. Sanders that burned last year, leaving the stone and brick shell:

As you can see from the picture, the exterior of the mansion is still there and the building can be restored. There's a meeting tomorrow with the Historic Zoning Commission to decide the fate of Pickle Mansion...
And of course it was announced on short notice, early in the morning, on tax day. Railroad much?

Wouldn't you rather have one of the few good things left in the Fort restored rather than one more parking lot?

If you can be there, here's the information about the meeting:

Historic Zoning Commission
April 15th, 8:30 am
City/County Building on Main St.

If you can't be there, at least fax Bill Haslam at 865.215.2085.

Honestly, no, I would rather see Ft. Sanders area Razed by fire completely and something else put in there that didn't bring in hte Dregs of Humanity.

That's mighty helpful, Spam - getting good results with that?

I am not but apparently someone is with the amount of arsons that take place there.

I don't recall ever seeing it. But then again, I probably did and never knew its name.

I've got work tomorrow - I'll fax 'em.

Thanks.

Well, I went to the meeting and it appears that the Historical Zoning Commission (and Mayor Haslam) will be supporting the rebuilding of the Pickle Mansion rather than the demolition of the shell.

Maybe it'll get saved after all.

cool

Very Cool!!!!

Yay!!!!

Unexpectedly good news!

There's actually a place called Pickle Mansion?




Great...now I have a craving...
