The key to Martin Tower is finding an adaptive reuse that allows it to be economically self-sustaining in the future marketplace. Without such a reuse, the existence of the tower will haunt the city for years to come as its scale is totally out of character with the rest of west Bethlehem and the mid to low-rise residential development proposed to surround it. My other concern is for the preservation of the former Bethlehem Steel blast furnaces. Most people in Bethlehem seem to agree that they should be preserved for their historic and iconic significance. Little is specifically said however of how they will be maintained and who will pay for it. One need look no further than Philadelphia and the cruiser Olympia to know that unmaintained items made of iron and steel always lose a battle with natural elements. A commitment to keep the blast furnaces standing will require more than words in a plan.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-89189633737536515552011-06-29T06:56:17.894-04:002011-06-29T06:56:17.894-04:00elect snails - they move faster than the administr...elect snails - they move faster than the administration and councilIsa Shapironoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-80623461753116679572011-06-29T06:40:57.592-04:002011-06-29T06:40:57.592-04:00we should not resist the temptation to remove dola...we should not resist the temptation to remove dolan or donchez for that matterZornnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-35607250522688256432011-06-29T06:20:22.014-04:002011-06-29T06:20:22.014-04:00"In addition, she used a real estate consulti..."In addition, she used a real estate consulting firm, two community forums, a blog, and even a youth survey, to come up with a historic preservation plan."<br /><br />Funny, Pawlowski's come up with a preservation plan too with a twist.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
