If you live in Southwest city, that's you. <br /><br />Demolitions to remember:<br /><br />The Arena for an office complex<br /><br />Southtown Famous for a strip center <br /><br />Art Deco condos for a Walgreens<br /><br />Redbird Lanes for Walgreens<br /><br />People in Southwest City would rather have the freedom to tear down and rebuild than have their options hemmed in by historic preservation.<br /><br />They would likely say that none of the above, with the possible exception of the old Arena, should even be considered "historic".<br /><br />Isn't it ironic?
