I found your Substack newsletter while going down a rabbit hole of the history of one of Reno’s first township homes on West Street that is part of the Jacob Entertainment buy up. I absolutely love the old historic buildings of Reno, and hope that they can be saved and not torn down, specifically the Regina Apartments. I love your idea of that building becoming some sort of speakeasy! How about a bakery? So many options. What I wouldn’t give to get a peak inside! Also, it would be absolutely DEVASTATING if the street on the riverside of the Lear Theater gets closed down to build Private! Apartments! My husband and I have a favorite walk, and I sometimes jog, between Wingfied Park and Idlewild along the river path there, as do the hundreds of others on a regular basis. ( we already have to pass by the eyesore of new apartments being built next to the Hub coffee shop!) I also just signed up for the city council member ward 1 newsletter as you linked to, so I am hoping to participate in any public comments on either of these specific buildings and their future. Thank you!
