Old east side business district

Endangered Building Information
Endangered Building Address: 
1600 E. Grand Avenue
Describe the current condition of the building: 
Not very good - the upper stories have not been used since 1987 due to the heat being disconnected.
Why is this building worth saving?: 
Many of the others buildings that were in this business district from E. 15th to E. 16th on East Grand have been removed and replaced with new buildings. This is one of the older sections of town, just east of the Capitol and needs to have some of it's past remembered. The owner has purchased other buildings and it appears that perhaps a major project may be in the works and even more buildings will be destroyed. Another building across the street on the same corner was built in 1887 but that building is in better condition and being used upstairs.
