Freedom Center To Be Converted Into Condos

By Gerard Oh \| Dealer staff writer	Mon, Mar 20, 2006
RIVERFRONT - Facing an estimated $2 million annual budget shortfall, the National Underground Railroad Museum and Freedom Center is looking at other avenues of fund raising. Luckily enough, the wide expanse of dirt between the two stadiums that can't seem to get started provides just such an opportunity. Mayor Mallory held a press conference in the big hole below street level between the Freedom Center and GABP, known as "Dirt East". "The Freedom Center needs to raise funds. The Banks project continues to languish and delay the constructions of, among other things, new residential units. Here, we have a perfect solution of killing two birds with one stone." County Commission President Phil Heimlich was present and commented that he "had an eye on the condo with the big flame out on the balcony."
