I had been disappointed primarily by the closures of bars and restaurants that brought life and character to Collegetown. I had also grumbled, to a lesser extent, about the changing “face” of Collegetown; old storied buildings gradually being swapped out for cold, glass edifices. One of the busiest intersections at the heart of Collegetown is going to have a massive office building? I’m not going to act like Collegetown’s old houses are all perfect, but I think they are a key aspect of Ithaca’s charm. The old houses give its residents a sense of freedom.
