LETTER TO THE EDITOR | Edgecliff property not abandoned

I have read with interest some of the comments regarding my Edgecliff restaurant property. Some have described it as abandoned and uncared for. I currently maintain the property with a weekly gardener, have the power and water on and have it heated during the winter. In the last few years I have had the parking lot repaired, trimmed all of the overgrown trees, had the building completely painted, replaced four of the waterfront windows and have had it constantly on the market for sale or rent. I have also explored the possibility of making it into a medical clinic to no avail.

Editor,

I have read with interest some of the comments regarding my Edgecliff restaurant property.

Some have described it as abandoned and uncared for. I currently maintain the property with a weekly gardener, have the power and water on and have it heated during the winter. In the last few years I have had the parking lot repaired, trimmed all of the overgrown trees, had the building completely painted, replaced four of the waterfront windows and have had it constantly on the market for sale or rent. I have also explored the possibility of making it into a medical clinic to no avail.

The maintenance and taxes on the building are expensive and painful, and to hear the criticism is equally painful. I find it is very easy to criticize others when you do not know all of the facts.

Respectfully,

RICHARD FRANCISCO
