New plans for old medical district eyesore
Anyone who's lived in Memphis a while knows the building at Madison & Pauline. It looms over the medical district like a big blighted behemoth. Previous plans for redevelopment have fallen through. But I learned UTHSC (the adjacent medical school) won approval to proceed with a plan to redevelop the site. I got started on this story, as usual, after 5:00. Fortunately, I ran into some women who walk past the building daily. They welcomed news of redevelopment. I also caught up with the Downtown Memphis Commission president for his perspective. Naturally, I get excited about any building-related story. Check out my Instagram account for more about that: jason_miles.
