A More Beautiful Tomorrow...

Four years ago our sheriff's department moved into a brand new facility complete with a modern jail. The old jail was an eyesore. The architecture was not in the same vein as the rest of historic downtown Athens. Because the old jail was adjacent to the school board, it was decided that demolition should occur. The deconstruction started earlier this week, and the space left will be used to construct new offices for the school system.

I am hopeful that the new facility will be beautiful. Our downtown area is so quaint and has so much potential. That's why I am hopeful the new facility will be lovely. You all know how much I love downtown!
