Olympia Area Preservation Alert

 

Olympia Greyhound Bus Depot

Notice seen in the January 28, 2001 Olympian:
Pre-submission: Greyhound station/IT transit station: Southwest corner of Olympia Avenue and Franklin Street. Pre-submission means "A preliminary "what-if" phase in which developers and government planners discuss a project's feasibility and the regulatory hurdles."
The Art Deco Society Northwest is left with with question:
What will happen to this classic Art Deco Building?
