Why not offer this property to Cherry Street Mission at a low price so that it can help to get homeless people off the streets? There is plenty of room in that building to provide shelter, especially during the winter for this need. Also, this building has equipment to prepare meals, give the homeless some activities during the day and to help cover the cost of providing these services the field house and stadium could be rented out for sporting events or activities. Maybe even some of the Libbey alumni would be willing to volunteer at the facility. From the pictures Bill Albert and Sue Terrill posted the inside of the building looks to be in good shape; anything that is in need of repair is the fault of TPS. TPS has wanted to close Libbey for years and now they have succeeded just like they closed the original Jones Junior High, which is still vacant and has been for years. Why the big push to hit Libbey with the wrecking ball TPS has been in no hurry to demolish other vacant schools?
