  Genius John Antaramian used a TIF district to build the school right next to the jail. He also built the failed Pick n Save and half empty apartment complex there in brass Park and the city is still paying back the debt.

    grain of salt i guess. having the school built a block away, made it so that the prison could no longer have sex offenders and murders there. before the school, you had sex offenders and murders housed there.
