I wanna hear about it if there’s a developer lynching at this thing…
What’s the big deal with tearing down the Italian Gardens? I know the restaurant was very important, but it’s gone. The building itself isn’t anything special or historic. It’s actually kinda crappy. We shouldn’t confuse the instutution that was the restaurant with the physical shell that it was located in.
