Hi, it's Cheryl. I am excited to see this website is still being updated!  I wonder who's reading it - beside me just now, I mean. Now that I see it's still alive, I'll bookmark and check back more often. Hope to make it to Eastern School developers' meeting. Sad to accept the distinct possibility that nothing will ever go back into the Eastern building for the entire Highland Pk community - public space, community center, little diners or shops or childcare facilities where neighbors could actually get jobs or realize personal benefits... or even rental spaces for nonprofits, where HP folks could make valuable connections.  Really too bad. I wish others would comment here on the subject - am I the only one who would feel a terrible loss seeing apartments go into Eastern??

At this point I think most people would be happy to see apartments go into the school; pretty much anything is better than an empty building.

YES, I agree now. Too much time has passed and I would like to see building used in whatever way it can be, rather than lose it entirely.
