Specific
property
affected:
Phillis Wheatley Elementary School, 2300 Dumaine Street
Comments: I oppose the demolition of this unique structure.

I am continually amazed at the extreme cantilevered construction any time I visit Willie Mae's Scotch House across the street.

While I am normally not even a fan of modernist buildings, this particular specimen is so interesting, such a hyperbolic anomaly, that I think it is worth preserving.
