I just looked. The station has been out-of-service for years. Still, it is a bad look IMHO to give in to these demands. Take over a neighborhood and you get a “community center” on property worth a lot of money.
I hope they just give it them “as is”. Then charge them to clean up the spilled diesel, oil and fire retardant chemicals in the soil.
BTW - pretty sure this area has mostly hip, gay white people in it. One would think they would put a community center for black people in a black community. Say 5 miles south on MLK Boulevard. I’m serious.
