A friend of mine just called me this morning about this. "I just signed a petition two days ago, what the hell happened?!" Here's hoping the planned building actually gets built.

I can assure you they are moving forward with the FIS headquarters.

There is no actual structure going on the site of the fire station is there?  I thought it was a road going there.

It will be a road that aligns with the existing intersection of Riverside Avenue and Forest Street. The FIS tower and garage will both be built on the surface parking lot just north of the old fire station.
