Same architect as always releases plans for new New Albany City Hall.


That very same architect who always gets chosen to be overpaid for public works projects has submitted his vision for a new City Hall, to be located in the former Reisz Furniture Building on Main Street.

Not to scale, dipshit.

The plan was drawn up following extensive consultations at the NACC Grille & Vegan Steakhouse between the usual architect, city council president Pat McLaughlin and mayor Jeff Gahan. It calls for private offices, fax machines, mini-bars and jacuzzis for every appointed commission member (except for Bully's wife on the HRC), as well as a one-way grand avenue (rear in photo) leading over the levee to the unused amphitheater, which we can't afford to repair.

Also proposed is a WiFi hotspot for meetings, complete with personalized dial-up Internet.

In a secret unreleased statement, Mayor Gahan promised that his 2015 re-election campaign would constitute a bold public referendum on the planned City Hall, by means of the topic never being mentioned aloud.

"It's an ideal adaptive reuse," commented the architect, "and especially good for me because the Asian health spa is right across the street."
