park -like setting.

were requested because of the necessity to remove any
liabilities to the Agency because of the defective structure
of the building.

whole section in that area Centennial Square, but due to the
fact that this was not placed on the Agenda, it will be
acted upon at the meeting of February 1, 1988.
