City seeks armory building on Bentz Street for recreation
Mayor Ronald N. Young said state officials indicate the city has top priority to acquire the 66 year old National Guard Armory on Bentz Street as the unit moves to new facilities on I 70. He will contact State Senator Edward P. Thomas Jr to press the purchase or lease. Thomas urged immediate action to keep the building for Frederick's use, noting the guard structure near the Monocacy Bridge is about 60 percent complete and the Bentz Street site may soon be available. He believes the city should explore leasing for a nominal dollar or a low price and repurpose the site for meetings, recreation, social and elderly activities with possible YMCA cooperation.
