You're cut
*sigh*
To pedestrians strolling by the Wallace W. Clark building on Shattuck Avenue, the sound of clinking silverware from the building's restaurant drowns out its most distinctive sound: the echoes of history.
Thanks, Brian Whitley. That was a very newsworthy comment.
[OMGIhatedevelopmentista Lesley Emmington], now a member of the commission, said Berkeley's unique personality, exhibited through its architecture, must be protected from "hasty economic opportunism."
Note the following assumptions:
Berkeley has a unique personality. Berkeley's unique personality is exhibited through its architecture. Berkeley's unique personality must be protected.
No one really bothers to defend those assumptions, which don't make a whole lot of sense to me. Anyone want to give it a shot?
