Editorial on Troy college campus expansion and alley closure
An editorial argues the proposed closure of an alley to make room for a science building and a $1 250 000 dormitory should be reconsidered. It emphasizes job creation, student housing, and city benefits, asserting the plan’s advantages outweigh objections from seven bordering property owners and a few federal-area neighbors. It cautions aldermen to weigh broader interests and current unemployment.
