Description
Its been a common discussion to place Sci-Quest in a permanent building and to possibly move the museum downtown. Why not take the land that the old Mental Facility use to be located and build it there? Since the land is on a hill, build the facility with small underground parking (to be used mostly for those working at the Museum). Incorporate this area's close location to Big Spring Park, the Museum of Art, and the possible Councill Court redevelopment as a gateway between the medical district and downtown.

Interesting facts, and lesson. I didn't know about the Funeral Home location there. I'm merely suggesting the fact that Sci-Quest should be moved in an area to function as a gateway between the Medical District and downtown. If not that area, then maybe somewhere along Gallatin, (perhaps the doctors offices along that same road?). My mentioning of a parking structure was merely to make all use of the land instead of having parking problems later on.
Definite food for thought all the same though. And I do agree with you to an extent about building on sites that already need repair. The Belk Hudson Lofts is a current relate-able project.
