Excerpt:
“Hello Justin [Justin Ellicker, Mayor of New Haven], this is one of your taxpayers, Cynthia Harrison. The Armory; we should make it a small business enterprise zone. It has been sitting here rotting away for many years and it is a disgrace for this beautiful building, which is more than 150,000 square feet, to go to waste. Do something with it, and do it now. It’s 2022. Thank you.”
