This insane comment from the property owner, Tim Clark of Zirkelbach Home Appliance, on the demolition of theatres in Clinton, Iowa:
“I think when we get done, people are going to be pleased with the appearance of it,†he said. “We want to make it an example of how nice parking lots can look with landscaping.â€
I hope Mr. Clark isn’t planning anymore downtown beautification projects in other cities. Someone seems to still be living in the 1960’s.
