The Deauville Apartment Building in Mt Pleasant

Latest on the Deauville is that the city is going to buy it from the negligent landlord for four million dollars. What is wrong with that picture? Then what? Not sure.

Also latest on the church that burned behind the Deauville: Looks like a lot of interest in turning it into a place for community artists. Wouldn't that be nice?

The photo was taken at the Latino Festival on Mt. Pleasant Street. The festivities in front of the Deauville belie the struggle it represents. Hopefully the people and street life depict the Deauville's future.
